Lumbar flexion(double knee to chest) : Participants will be supine position with both legs flat on the floor. One hip and knee will be bent first to the chest, then the other to the chest. The knees will be grasped with the hands. Straight Leg Raise: Participants will be supine position with hips and legs comfortably on the floor.
