The Seated Glute Stretch, Figure 4, is a great exercise for anyone who sits throughout the day, stiffness or tightness in the hip with walking/running/activity, and for anyone with low back pain. 

How-To Steps:

  1. Sit at the edge of a chair with feet resting flat on the ground. 
  2. Lift your affected side leg and cross it over the other, resting the outside of your ankle on the opposite thigh. 
  3. Sit up tall until you feel a stretch in your glute. Slowly lean forward to increase the stretch. 

*Hold for 30 seconds
