Find a wall and flow through these stretches without stopping. If you had a hard workout you may see some twitching in your muscles which is your CNS (central nervous system) working and this is normal. You want to really feel the stretch but you don’t want it to hurt. Perform this 2-3x per week.

-Lie prone with your hips as close to the wall as you can.
-Put your legs on the wall making a 90 degree bend at your hips
-Push your hips down
-Bring your toes towards you
-Press your knees to the wall
-Hold for time

Legs Up The Wall Stretch

- Begin lying down with glutes on the wall, legs extended up the wall
- Allow legs to fall open and hold

Wall Split Stretch

-Lay on the mat with your hips as close to the wall as you can
-Bring your feet together
-Keep your big toes together as much as possible
-Gently press your knees towards the wall
-Hold

Wall Butterfly Stretch

-Lying prone on mat with hips as close to wall as possible
-Legs up wall
-Place one foot in front of the other

Stacked Legs Up Wall Stretch

-Lying on your mat bring both knees to your chest

Good all-round warm-up / mini workout. Would be difficult for me to do at the pool (no available dry spaces)
