Steady yourself with one hand. With the other, grab outside leg at the ankle, keeping body straight from knee to hip. Gently pull foot up and towards the buttocks until you feel a stretch along the front of thigh. Thigh should be pulled straight back and not drift to outside. Hold 20-30 seconds. For variation, grab opposite ankle (i.e., grab right ankle with left hand). Do two to three repetitions per leg.
