Express and Reset Stretches for the Lower Body

Focus & Benefits: Time to ditch your workout shoes and dust off your exercise mat. This workout focuses on improving flexibility and mobility in your hips, hamstrings, and glutes through quick, targeted stretches. Perfect for anyone seeking relief and muscle recovery without high impact exercises!

Equipment: Exercise mat, water bottle (optional)

Tips & Helpful Information: We receive so many requests for quick and effective mobility routines that fit into your current lifestyle. Today’s workout features floor exercises for lower body mobility, and there’s a reason why we chose this format. Generally speaking, floor exercises reduce the force of gravity on the body, thereby lessening the demand on postural muscles that hold us upright. Less demand equals greater focus and attention on the task at hand, like our stretches!

Difficulty & Modifications Explained: Today’s work hovers around a Level 2 difficulty, however, it could definitely feel like a 3 if your hips are tight, grumpy, or a little stubborn.

Closing Note: Like we mentioned in the subtitle, you could easily use this routine as a warm-up, cool down, or healthy movement break. As a matter of fact, I filmed early in the morning and appreciated how fluid my hips felt for the remainder of the day! Would love to hear how this workout benefitted you in traditional or unconventional ways.
