Interesting. I've been using something similar (while sitting in half-lotus) but I thought I was stretching my iliotibial band.

You may want to read my Article on WHY NOT to hold a Stretch for 20-30 seconds as it causes Ischemia in the muscle! Or Come hear the Aaron Mattes speak about the Dangers of Prolonged static stretching!! (Book-Active Isolated Stretching: Stretching for Everyone) I would be more than happy to show how to Stretch Properly and actually Reach the Piriformis to get better results, without Violating the principle laws of the body. (Sherringtons Law II) and Wolfe's Law

Thats more Glute max! But Since A muscle can ONLY contract, or Relax or Stabilize. And Cant do ALL at same time only 1 at a time. You leaning on the muscle is forcing it to contract there fore cannot be Stretched! (Sherrington's Law II) Also holding for 20-30 seconds is setting the muscle up for overuse injury

Please consult your books because this is not a glute max stretch at all. It is indeed a piriformis stretch and holding a stretch for 30 to 60 seconds is the most effective way to lengthen a muscle. This will not "set up" someone for overuse injuries.
