Standing Elevated Quad Stretch

Legs · Other

How to do it

Start by standing with your back about two to three feet away from a bench or step. Lift one leg behind you and rest your foot on the step,either on your instep or the ball of your foot, whichever you find most comfortable. Keep your supporting knee slightly bent and avoid letting that knee extend out beyond your toes. Switch sides.

Variants

The drawing shows one way of doing it, and the technique above describes that one. Almost every exercise has variants — standing or seated, the grip, the bench angle — and is still the same exercise: if you do it another way, write it in the exercise note and you will have it every time you train it.
