Yeah. You might not have heard of the piriformis, but when it's tight you likely feel it! It is deep, under your glutes, and connects your sacrum, the back part of your pelvis, to your hip. When it's shortened and tight, it can throw off your gait, your squat, and more. The Figure 4 stretch is a safe and gentle way to lengthen this muscle, but if you want something that goes a little deeper, try the yoga pose pigeon.
