Description
The patient lies on their back with ankles and knees hip-width apart and places the heels on the ground. They squeeze their glutes to lift their hips. From this position, the patient gradually moves the heels forward to the maximum stretch. They keep the glutes engaged throughout the movement. When the legs are almost extended, the patient returns to the initial position by performing the same movement this time in muscle shortening.
