Stretch of the Week: 1/2 Lord of the Fishes
Posted on by Athletico
The last of April’s internal hip rotation stretches is one from the yoga world called 1/2 Lord of the Fishes. Fun name!
It is also a bonus stretch because it adds an upper body twist.
If you have or are experiencing any of these please refrain from doing the stretch: sacral problems, hip or knee pain, especially with rotating inward, or low back pain when twisting. In addition, if you have trouble getting up or down from the floor this stretch may not be for you. As always, prior to beginning any exercise program, contact your physician, physical or occupational therapist to determine what is right for you.
You will not need any equipment for this stretch.
