Best Quad & Hip Flexor Stretch EVER - Couch Stretch With PAILs & RAILs Improve Your Hip Extension And Knee Flexion Mobility By Stretching Your Quadriceps (Rectus Femoris) & Hip Flexors This stretch is often referred to as the Couch Stretch. One of your quadriceps muscles (your rectus femoris) crosses both the hip and the knee. If this muscle is tight, it can limit not only full knee flexion, but also terminal hip extension. This muscle is often overlooked, but usually chronically tight in most people. If you know that you have a tight rectus femoris (or tight quadriceps in general), then use this stretching technique to improve your knee flexion and hip extension. This technique utilizes passive stretching and isometric contractions. We call this type of stretching PAILs RAILs (progressive & regressive angular isometric loading). Watch the full video to learn how to properly stretch your quadriceps in the couch stretch position. Need to stretch just your hip flexors instead?
