Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Knee Raise Stretch.
A standing stretch where you pull one knee toward your chest to release tension in the glute, hamstring, and lower back. Performed one leg at a time, it provides a targeted stretch through the posterior chain and helps improve hip mobility.
The Knee Raise Stretch is a foundational movement that builds strength and muscle through controlled, progressive overload. Train it 1 to 2 times per week with 3 to 5 working sets per session, gradually adding weight or reps as form holds up.
