Hip flexor stretch, leg on chair

Stand up straight facing a chair or high bench.
Stand on the leg you would like to stretch, placing the sole of your other foot firmly on the chair.
Ensure your foot is in the middle of the chair so as to avoid any tipping.
Stand up straight, look ahead, and tighten your buttock muscles.
Keep your stance leg straight as you push your hips forwards.
You should feel a stretch in the front of your hip on your stance leg.
Hold this position.
