The lying glute stretch is a stretch to help increase flexibility in the glutes and hips. It involves rotating a single leg over the body while lying flat on the back, and reaching around the leg to facilitate a stretch. It is commonly included in dynamic warm-ups or cool-downs, but can also be performed as full-body mobility work anytime.
