Leg cradle

Leg cradle

Stand up straight with your knees soft.
Transfer your weight onto one leg, and lift your other leg up towards your chest.
This is the leg you will stretch.
Cradle your elevated leg in both hands, either wrapping one hand around your knee and the other around your ankle or both hands around your ankle.
Pull your ankle up towards your chest, allowing your knee to drop out to your side.
Your shin will now travel across your hips.
Ensure your back remains straight, your chest forward and your gaze ahead.
Hold this position.
Control the movement as you lower your leg back down to the floor, and then repeat on the other side.
