Intermediate Groin Stretch

What it is

This static isolation stretch, performed while lying on your back, helps improve flexibility in your groin and hamstrings. You will use a simple band or strap to guide one leg outwards. This movement primarily targets your hamstrings, contributing to enhanced lower body range of motion.

Technique tips

• Use a towel or strap for controlled, gentle tension.
• Keep your un-stretched leg straight and stable on the floor.
• Guide your leg out to the side slowly and deliberately.
• Breathe deeply throughout the stretch to encourage relaxation.
• Avoid bouncing; maintain a steady, consistent pull.
• Progress by slightly increasing the outward reach over time.

How to track your progress

Log the hold time of each set. Straddly keeps your best hold for this exercise and tells you when you beat it, so a two-second gain does not go unnoticed.
