Exercise Benefits

The quads (quadriceps) is a large muscle group that sits on the front of your thighs. The purpose of these muscles is to straighten the legs and extend the knees. Having tight quads can lead to knee and back pain, and may even result in injury. Doing a quad stretch after a lower body workout is the key to having healthy, flexible, and stress-free quads.

Intensity And Duration

Before you start to stretch make sure that your muscles are warmed up. Hold the stretch for at least 30 seconds on each leg and deepen the stretch slowly and carefully. Avoid stretching beyond your normal range of motion.
