7 Feel-Good Stretches from Denise Austin

Stretch 2: Quad Stretch 

Target: Fronts of your thighs

Step 1: Stand with your feet together. Exhale as you bend your left leg, lifting your left foot toward the left buttock.

Step 2: Grab your left foot with your left hand and gently pull your heel closer to your buttock with your left knee pointed toward the ground. Extend your right arm for balance. (For more help balancing, rest your right hand on the back of a chair.)

Step 3: Breathe normally as you hold the stretch for 20 seconds. Repeat with the other leg.
