How to perform it
- Start off on your hands and knees, then lift your leg off the floor and hold the foot with your hand.
- Use your hand to hold the foot or ankle, keeping the knee fully flexed, stretching the quadriceps and hip flexors.
- Focus on extending your hips, thrusting them towards the floor. Hold for 10-20 seconds and then switch sides.
Muscles worked
The All Fours Quad Stretch primarily targets your Quadriceps, with support from your Quadriceps. You'll need body only.
Make it count toward your goal
Random sets rarely move the needle. In NYUS, the All Fours Quad Stretch slots into a plan built for your goal — sets and reps set in the plan, logged in two taps, and folded into a weekly check-in that adjusts your calories, macros and step goal.
