The near kneeling hip flexor stretch with active contraction (PNF/contract-relax technique) where you squeeze the glute muscles for 5-10 seconds, relax, and then go deeper, creates a neurological reflex that releases the psoas muscle more effectively than static stretching alone

Evidence Quote
“if you can squeeze your butt cheek tense up that tissue actively make it work hold this for 5 to 10 seconds what this does is this gets your brain involved so that when you stop tensing it creates this reflex that physically releases that muscle”
