Hamstring Stretch

Expert Advice

Keep your back straight and bend from the hips rather than rounding your back, to ensure the stretch targets your hamstrings effectively.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Sit on the ground with one leg extended straight in front of you.
  2. Bend the other leg so the sole of your foot is against your opposite inner thigh.
  3. Reach forward towards your toes of the straight leg with both hands.
  4. Hold the stretch for 20-30 seconds, then switch legs and repeat.
