Stretches That Help A Pulled Groin

Side Lunge Stretch

MichaelCurtisPT

The side lunge stretch is a stretch that helps target your hip adductors. Make sure you're gentle and don't strain your muscles, since this might inhibit your recovery. Stand up with your feet positioned far apart and point your toes outward at a forty-five-degree angle. Lunge to one side. Your straight leg's foot should be pointing upward, but your heel should stay on the floor. Go as low as you can without experiencing too much strain or pain. Hold this stretch for a few seconds, and then slowly return to the starting position. Repeat it with the opposite leg. You should do about ten reps on each leg. If you want to increase the exercise, do a few sets with ten repetitions per leg. In addition, make sure your back stays straight throughout the stretch. As you stretch your inner thigh muscles, you'll also stretch the gracilis on your straight leg.
