Tag someone who needs to up their hamstring stretching game! The details matter when you are performing a stretch. We are all very busy people so if you are going to take the time to do a stretch, be sure you are getting the most out of it.⁣⁣

When standing with one leg up, be sure to find your neutral pelvis or even press into some excessive anterior tilt of the pelvis. If you are tucking the bum under (posterior tilt) you will not get as deep. Play with how upright your body is to feel the different areas of the hamstring that you hit. ⁣⁣

Stretching is fine. People love to do it. But many do it mindlessly. Focus on what you are doing. Pay attention to how your body responds and to the sensations it produces. Understand that stretching is a quick fix. It can feel great but it’s not really going to accomplish much long term. You must strengthen the area also for lasting results. ⁣⁣

I used to feel tight CONSTANTLY in my hamstrings and had a lot of pain up high on the hamstring, near the glutes. I would stretch all the time and it would feel better for maybe a couple of hours, and then the pain would come back even stronger. The thing is that I could easily bend over, with a flat lower back, and press my hands flat on the floor. I was certainly NOT tight. Once I strengthened the hamstrings and stopped stretching them the pain completely went away. If you are constantly stretching the hamstrings but are flexible shift over to strengthening them and see what it does! ⁣⁣
