Chris: I looked up the reclining pigeon, and it is a similar starting position to one of my Sciatica exercises. That also starts with one leg bent, other leg’s ankle crossed over and resting on knee. However, then I was instructed to pull the knee diagonally toward my opposite shoulder to stretch the Piriformis. So I thought, why not try the pigeon move while I’m in the right position anyway? Yikes! I never knew that stretching my hip the other way - outward - was such a challenge. I’ll start working on that move every day now and hope to see lots of improvement over time. Did not help that I’m already semi-sore from several home improvement projects, as well as daily dragging around long, heavy duty hoses to keep at least some shrubs alive. No rain here in about a month, temperatures 10 to 12 degrees above average - mid 90’s in late September - , and no rain in sight for another 10 days!!! FYI - this is SC, not Texas or Nevada!
