Pigeon Stretch 🕊️
This is an effective deep stretch for the piriformis and glutes.
Note - it may not be possible for everyone to do this stretch so figure 4 maybe a better alternative.
- Start on all fours. Bring one leg across your body so that is bent and above your hip. - The other leg goes straight behind as far as it goes, whilst you bring your chest and torso towards the ground.
- Rest on your elbows and apply pressure so that you feel a strong stretch but no pain.
- Hold for 15 seconds as part of a maintenance or post-workout routine.
- Hold for 30 seconds as part of a developmental stretching routine.
