In this blog post, we'll explore the top 10 hip flexor exercises you can incorporate into your routine to unlock flexibility and improve overall mobility. 1. Lunges Lunges are excellent for targeting the hip flexors while engaging the glutes and quadriceps. Step forward with one leg to perform a lunge and lower your body until both knees are bent at a 90-degree angle. Keep your back straight and chest lifted. Repeat on both sides for an effective hip flexor stretch. 2. Hip Flexor Stretch Start kneeling with one foot forward and the other knee on the ground. Lean forward slightly, keeping your back straight until you feel a stretch in the front of your hip. Hold the stretch for 20-30 seconds, then switch sides. 3. Bridge Pose Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Lift your hips towards the ceiling, squeezing your glutes and engaging your core. Hold the bridge pose for a few seconds before lowering back down.

  2. 4. Knee to Chest Stretch Lie on your back with both knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Bring one knee towards your chest, clasp your hands around it, and pull gently towards you. Hold the stretch for 20-30 seconds before switching sides. 5. Pigeon Pose Start in a plank position and bring one knee towards your chest, placing it on the ground near your opposite wrist. Extend your opposite leg behind you, keeping your hips square. Lower your body towards the ground to deepen the stretch in your hip flexors. Hold the pose for 20-30 seconds before switching sides.
