work on your abs it creates a better support system!.!.!.also everyday try n straddle for thirty seconds touch your toes!. LEAPS help to they give your legs a sense of reach!. Try n lift your leg on to a bar the kitchen deck something with height but not to high and stretch your legs out!. If it hurts stop and try something less tall!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com
