How it’s performed
- Start off on your hands and knees, then lift your leg off the floor and hold the foot with your hand.
- Use your hand to hold the foot or ankle, keeping the knee fully flexed, stretching the quadriceps and hip flexors.
- Focus on extending your hips, thrusting them towards the floor. Hold for 10-20 seconds and then switch sides.
General movement description — not Justin’s coaching. He hasn’t catalogued this lift, so there’s no Troponin cue for it.
