✨ Self Care September – Stretch & Release for Tired Legs ✨
Been sitting at your desk or on your feet all day? This standing quad stretch is a quick way to ease tension in the front of your thighs, improve flexibility and help your posture.
How to do it:
1️⃣ Stand tall and hold on to a chair or wall for balance.
2️⃣ Bend one knee, bringing your heel towards your butt.
3️⃣ Keep your kneecap pointing towards the floor (avoid letting the knee drift forward).
4️⃣ Hold for 15–20 seconds, breathing deeply.
5️⃣ Switch sides.
✅ Stretches quads & hip flexors
✅ Helps ease knee & lower back discomfort
✅ Great for posture after long periods of sitting
Your legs work hard for you, give them a moment to stretch, lengthen and reset.
