Knee-elevated Kneeling hip-flexor release (KE-KHFR)
Fundamental squat & hip-mobility development
•
2m 52s
THE WHAT:
A simple variation on a classic hip-flexor 'release' drill performed by elevating the back knee and pulling through the ground with the FLAT FOOT, rather than the knee. This facilitates greater loading of the hip-flexor of the back leg, and also places more stress across the quadriceps as you now have to maintain an ACTIVE knee extension to straighten the back leg.

The fundamental 'Dragon-Squat'
THE WHAT & HOW:
