Narrow Hurdler Stretch Glute Rise

Howdy!

I have been having issues with my right glute coming off the ground and throwing me off balance when I perform the narrow hurdler stretch (I think that's what it's called) with my left leg extended on the block and my right foot tucked back by my butt. This does not happen to me on the other side. Is there some sort of additional stretching that I need to do? I can't even begin to hinge at the hips and bend forward in this position either...

I appreciate any help y'all can give me!

Thanks,

Eli

Hello Elijah, we will help you with pleasure. Please send us videos of both side of the stretch.

Great! I'll film it a bit later and upload it for you. I appreciate you reaching out.

Alright, I snapped two quick pictures this morning of me getting into the stretch. It's hard to see my butt coming off the ground, but you can tell there is a more pronounced curve in my spine when my right leg is back.

Thanks again for taking a look.

Tight quads mi friend, tight quads, spend some time every days on the FSSSE2 and FSSSE21.

E2 and E21? Those are just the exercises (in sequence) in the Front Split Series, right?

I had a feeling this was caused by tight quads. Thanks for the help!

Exactly your limitation on tibialis leads also in fewer quads isolation, for this reason, i've inserted the seiza.

Deleted due to research.

I have the same problem, plus it hurts my knee a little bit to get into this position, although I can put my foot up on a block. Maybe that means I'm REALLY doing it wrong. 

Also, I don't understand the instructions for the solution.

@Adam Johnson, please go and look them up in your course library. Go to MY COURSES, FITNESS, COURSE LIBRARY.

folow LUke's suggestion, then from the course library that corresponds to what you have already owned you need to select stretch course, then front split, then the second icon to the right and in the new page will appear all the single exercises.

Ah! I see!.  

I'm excited to get working on those today. Thank you!
