Description

Lie on the back and loop a strap around one foot; raise that leg only as far as comfortable while keeping the other leg relaxed and the neck neutral.

Easier option

Keep the raised knee bent or lower the leg; hold the strap loosely.

Breathing cue

Keep breathing normally; do not pull to end range.
