Exercise Benefits

The butterfly stretch helps to open up the hips and thighs and improves flexibility. This stretch targets the groin area, loosening and lengthening the inner thigh muscles (adductors). The adductors are often neglected in workouts but they play a key role in your stability and balance. Doing exercises that target these muscles can be very beneficial to your posture and mobility.

Intensity And Duration

Stretch for 20 to 30 seconds and lean into the stretch gradually. Perform this stretch after a lower body workout, as part of your cool down period. You should also do this stretch after a run or any sports that can cause strain on your lower body.
