Quadratus Lumborum (QL) and ITB (Iliotibial Band) Stretching

Показать описание
Side Bending with your arm raised over the top of your head will stretch your oblique muscles. Putting your leg behind you as you raise your (same side) arm over your head will stretch the IT Band. Pushing your hip out and reaching further into the side bend will deepen the stretch to incorporate the QL muscle (Quadratus Lumborum). Lastly, twist your torso looking behind you to get the deepest form of the stretch.

Thank you so much for this fast and easy explanation! A sports medicine doctor gave me this exercise on a list of things to do to help runner's knee, but the illustration and written description had me very confused.
