Knee-elevated Kneeling hip-flexor release (KE-KHFR)
BW leg-abduction range & forms
•
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.

Quadriceps & hip-flexor stretches
THE WHAT:
Fundamental static stretches affecting the "hip-flexors" & quadriceps complex. Whist incomplete in themselves for developing sustainable and USABLE ranges in the long-term, their convenience allows them to be more easily cultivated into an habitual daily practice, one of the most powerf... -
Front-splits dropset
THE WHAT & WHY:
A no-fuss dropset which will both test and develop your "split-surfing" skills, as well as physiological experience & adaptation as a result of the time spent there. Whilst not strictly a ‘dropset’ in the sense of "dropping" down through weight, time, or progressions, it is in the... -
Leg-adductor & 'straddle' stretching
THE WHAT & HOW:
In the process of developing lower-body, 'large-frame' mobility forms (e.g. 'splits' & 'pancake'), we bring attention to the necessity of also "accustoming" to those ranges.During more "potent" contexts of practice, such as loaded stretching and extended, bodyweight isometrics, ...
