The Shin Stretch
To do a shin stretch, begin by sitting on the floor on the top of your calves and your feet. The tops of your feet and your shins should be touching the floor. Place your hands behind you and slowly walk your hands back, keeping your torso straight. Recline until your torso is at a 45 degree angle with the ground. Now hold the stretch for 15 seconds and then come to an upright position.

The Kneeling Quad Stretch
Here’s a different way to do a quad stretch that you may have overlooked. You can begin the stretch by kneeling on your right knee and placing your left foot flat on the floor. Your back should be straight at this point and your abs should be tight. Now reach behind you with both arms to grab your right foot and pull it towards you’re your bottom. Hold the stretch for 15 seconds and then release your leg. Switch to the opposite side and repeat the stretch.
