Hi Cathe (and anyone else )
When I try to stretch my quads and hip flexors in a side-lying position, it is very uncomfortable on my knees, for some strange reason. I've been standing to do the stretch (in this position it doesn't hurt at all), but tonight at the end of All Step I just flipped over onto my stomach and did the stretch that way. I felt no pain, but just wanted to make sure that this is an ok way to do the quad and hip flexor stretch. In any position I do this stretch, I am keeping my legs aligned, my knees paralell and pointing straight down (or to the wall, depending on whether I'm lying down or standing up), etc, etc. I do kind of wonder why it hurts in the lying down position...
Thanks in advance!
Wendy
