Start in kneeling in front of the wall. Bring one leg backwards, so the lower leg and the knee are resting up against the wall. Relax the hamstring as it will otherwise bring up a cramp. Keep the spine straight and the pelvis level. Try to keep your shoulders low when assuming the starting position. Slide the other knee forward and let your knee move out to the side. Clench your buttock to keep the stretch on the front of the hip and thigh, and lunge down to get the front leg groin stretch.
Be careful not to arch your lower back, if you feel yourself doing this, stop and reset starting position.
Special Notes
REGRESSION: moved your knee further away from the wall of the stretch is too much in the quadriceps, and clench you buttock to get the hip flexor stretch more. contract/relax the glutes to relax the front of the hip
