Anyone know any good stretching exercises for the leg muscle right below the hip and above the thigh? It's that small one at the front of the leg up high.
I want to get it much more flexible as I have never directly tried to before. My high and side kicks are up there, but my back kicks are that of a crippled old man. I'm thinking it's because of this muscle.
Anyways, I need some stretching exercises that will really isolate this muscle.
Anyone?
Thanks

on the outside of the leg or inside?

for the inside of the hip, try this

just do the part that she has her right leg in. REad the directions and you'll get it. your back leg is just down and straight, and you bend down towards the front leg. It stretches the inside of the hip really good

Not quite. I need the one on the top stretched (outside i guess?).
Thanks for the site though, I'll look thru it and see if I can find somehting.
