Dynamic Incline Pigeon

DYNAMIC INCLINE PIGEON

The dynamic incline pigeon is a mobility exercise. This exercise requires an exercise bench that can be set up in a 30 to 45 degree incline. Rotate your front thigh and place your outer shin on the inclined bench so that the knee is higher than your foot. Place the other leg behind you. Drop the hip towards the ground and use your hands to support your body if needed. Continue to hinge forwards at the hips until you reach your maximal tolerable range. Extend the hip to return to a neutral position and repeat as required.
