DOWEL WORLD’S GREATEST STRETCH

This is a multisegmental stretch that targets the trail leg’s hip, and spinal rotators. Start by placing a dowel on your shoulders behind the base of your neck. Go into a half kneel position and slowly aim to reach the floor with the dowel by rotating through the spine. Rotate towards the side of your trail leg while going into hip extension with the trail leg. Hold your end range position for up to 20-30 seconds and rest by returning to starting position.
