The Quad Stretch is best used to stretch out your quad muscle.  To do this stretch, you will want to lie on your side, and with your bottom arm hold your lowered leg toward the chest.  For the upper leg, hold the top of your foot, and pull your top leg slightly back and up.  The bottom leg and torso should stay still while doing this stretch.  It is important to pull in the abdomen, not use the arm too much for the stretch, and to use the leg more to do the stretch. After doing the stretch for the one leg, flip sides and do it for the other side.
