It is an exercise to stretch the iliotibial band, one of the difficult muscles to mobilize. It is perfect for runners and those who love walking.

Step 1 – Lie straight on your spine. Using a strap or belt, wrap it around your foot, and pull your leg up, keeping your knee locked out straight.

Step 2 – When it begins to feel tight, pull your leg across your body until you experience a stretch on the outside of your leg. Hold the stretch for a few seconds.
