To use it for a good stretch, place your ankles at the bottom of the stretcher, and then hold the middle handle and pull back—just be sure to follow the directions.

You can also do this stretch sitting up — by pulling your foot back into a flexed position, it can help you stretch your calves.

This simple move will stretch the iliopsoas/hip flexors on the rear leg and the glutes on the front leg.
