The forward low lunge stretch (Yoga Sanskrit Term: Anjaneyasana) is a great way to unwind after a long day of sitting… either at your desk ??‍?, in your car ?, in front of your tv ?…


When we sit for long periods of time, we’re prone to hip & low back pain ⚠️. Extended time in these seated positions causes muscle imbalance, as some muscles are lengthening, and under-active, while their opposing muscles are contracting, and over stimulated. Tight hip flexors and hamstrings are directly linked to lower back pain and stretching helps to counter this ????‍♂️


Slow, mindful lunges can be a great hip opener, targeting the hip flexors, inner thigh, low back, psoas, hams, quads, glutes and calves.


Explore each side for at least 1 minute (longer if you can) & hopefully some of that pain will release ??
