Bend your knee back down, while also pumping your ankle downward and inward as if pressing the brake in a car. Repeat 6-10 times on each leg.

P I R I FORM I S STR E TCH Sit in a chair with good posture. Cross the ankle of the leg you want to stretch overtop of your opposite knee. Lean your trunk slowly forward until you feel a slight stretch. Hold, then return to the starting position. Repeat 6-10 times as needed.
