Forward Fold with Crossed Legs
This exercise can help ease the tightness and tension along the IT band. You may feel a stretch along the thigh muscles while doing the exercise. Start by standing with both feet apart in a hip distance. Cross the right foot over the left one. Make sure to keep both pinkie toes aligned. Breathe in while extending the arms overhead. Next, breathe out while hinging forward from the hips and try a forward bend by lengthening the spine. Try to put both hands to the ground and elongate the neck’s back. Make sure the knees are slightly bent. Try to stay for 60 seconds and repeat on the other side. [4]
