Seated One Leg Hamstring Stretch
Expert Advice
Keep your spine long and avoid rounding your back to prevent unnecessary strain and to target the hamstrings more effectively.
How-to-do Steps
- Sit on the floor with one leg extended and the other bent so that the sole of your foot is against your inner thigh.
- Turn your torso towards the extended leg.
- Reach forward towards your toes, hinging at the hips, and hold the stretch for 15-30 seconds.
- Release the stretch and repeat 2-3 times before switching legs.
