Stay Loose and Do These 10 Stretches After Every Run

This is my all-time favorite quad stretch. It lengthens the entire front of the thigh, stretching the quad from the hip to the knee.

• Begin in a runner's lunge with your right foot forward. Slowly lower your left knee to the floor.
• Take a few moments to find balance, and once you're stabilized, grab your left foot with your left hand.
• Hold for 30 seconds, then switch sides.
