Primary muscles: Quadriceps

Secondary muscles: Quadriceps

How to do it

  1. Kneel on a mat and bring your right knee up so the bottom of your foot is on the floor and extend your left leg out behind you so the top of your foot is on the floor.
  2. Shift your weight forward until you feel a stretch in your hip. Hold for 15 seconds, then repeat for your other side.

Track it with MyoAmigo

MyoAmigo pre-fills every set of the Kneeling Hip Flexor from last time, charts your estimated 1RM trend so you can see strength move without testing a true max, and flags a stall with a concrete fix. It also credits this work toward your weekly Quadriceps volume on the MyoMap heatmap. New to the movement? Start with picking a working weight and progressive overload.
