Since being under lockdown for COVID, many of us have transitioned to working and learning from home. With that, we tend to sit a lot more than usual and that is a recipe for tight muscles, joint tension, and lower back pain. So in this video, we guide you through a quick, 10 minute lower body stretch routine that specifically targets the muscle groups that tighten from sitting: the hamstrings and hip flexors. This routine is made up of 5 active stretches that will allow you to relieve pain/tension, and gain flexibility over time. Grab a yoga mat, try out the stretch, and drop a comment to let us know if this helped you in any way!

(BTW: We apologize for the bad audio at times. We had some technical issues while filming but hopefully it doesn't ruin your experience with us.)

Ive come across alot of exercise videos but this one is by far the most simplest and effective at the same time. I work from home 9hours 6days a week so my lower body is completely stiff and as mentioned in this video this exercise is perfect for that situation. I have noticed everytime shortly after completing the exercise my lower back pain temporary disappears until later in the evening. This is why they have recommended doing one around when you wake up and one couple hours before bedtime. It works to perfection. This video has changed my life, thank you so much 🙏 ❤

Yo!!! 😭 I’ve had extremely tight muscles since i was 13! I just had a baby and I was so tight that I was limping and couldn’t get out of bed. This just relieved it so much!!! I’ll continue to do this twice a day and see how it helps 🫶🏼 thank you so much!

This did my hip flexors SO GOOD after yesterday's glute workout! I loved the deep hip stretches towards the very end. I can already tell a difference with how much tension was released!

I just finished one of your workouts that suggested this video as a follow up, and this really took it over to the next level! My whole body feels a since of euphoria, kind of like a runners high! That's how I always know that I've had a good workout. Thank you guys so much for sharing with us in so glad I've finally discovered you!!!

This stretch routine really works!!! My inner thighs and sciatic nerve was on fire! So much to were it was distracting. I worked out anyway hoping it would go away, but here it is day three and still in pain, so I decided to do this stretch routine. Guess what guys....my inner thigh muscles have loosened up and the pain is gone!!!! This is definately my go to stretch routine, it is a must have if you workout hard!!! Thanks Juice and Toya! Love you guys!!!

Thank you Jesus!!! 🙏🙌🥳 God bless you both. I've been in so much pain, so inflamed, and rigid lately. And I work from home and it does require a lot of sitting. I felt relief in the first few minutes of the video. This was so simple and uncomplicated, but yielded soo much relief in a short stretch and amount of time. I will look for more of your videos. God bless you both and thank you again, I'm truly thankful. I want to start a daily stretch routine, and I found you guys on YouTube today and I'm soo grateful! 😊🙏

Probably one of if not my favorite stretch routines. Struggle bad with hip and hamstring tightness and this helps.

I have seen many many videos for stretching for years but by far this is one of the best video I have ever seen to stretch your leg, glutes and hip!
@jessrisch9203 3 years ago

Loved doing this one after yesterday's workout, could definitely feel how tight I got. Also realizing just how much I need to stretch my major muscles! 😄

@Dave-yw4sp 2 years ago

I've tried so many different stretching routines but none of them have released my hip flexors as good as this. Thanks a lot guys
