What are the leg flexibility exercises?

The legs should not only have strength and beauty, but also flexibility, which is very beneficial to our body conditioning. However, in normal times, many friends only pay attention to the strength and beauty of the legs, but ignore making the legs more flexible. This is also a bad situation. When we exercise in normal times, we should also pay attention to exercising the flexibility of the legs. So, what are the methods to exercise leg flexibility? Let’s take a look at it together.

Seated forward bend: 3-4 times a week, 3 sets each time, 30S-60S per set

Function: Stretch the muscles on the back of the legs, effectively prevent low back pain, increase the flexibility of the muscles on the back of the legs, prevent joint injuries during exercise or daily life, and also draw out the sexy lines of the legs.

Movement essentials: Sit flat on a mat or bed, stretch your legs, put your feet together, and curl your toes. Bend your upper body forward with your arms straight and stretched toward your toes. When your upper body tilts forward to the maximum, hold this position for 30S-60S. This counts as one set.

Note: Do not bend your knees during the movement and make sure to curl your toes, otherwise the effect will be reduced by half.

Seated hip muscle stretch: 3-4 times a week, 3 sets each time, 30S-60S each set

Function: Stretch the buttocks muscles, effectively prevent low back pain, increase the flexibility of the buttocks muscles, make the buttocks curve more beautiful, and also have a certain effect on enhancing female sexual function.

Key points of the movement: Sit on a chair, the height of the chair is about the length of our calf, lift one foot and place it on the knee of the other leg, press the knee of the lifted leg with one hand, and press the other hand on the foot of the lifted leg, press the upper body forward until you feel the buttocks muscles stretching a little, and maintain this position for 30S-60S, which counts as a set, and perform alternately with both legs.

Note: Try not to hunch your chest when your body moves forward, otherwise the effect will be greatly reduced.

The above method is the leg flexibility training method during daily fitness. This is also something we need to do and pay attention to in normal times. It plays an important role in regulating and coordinating the balance of our body. At the same time, it will also have a good effect on our body. Strength and flexibility should be carried out together during fitness.
