Reclining Hamstring Stretch

Here’s a relaxing way to stretch one hamstring at a time.

  1. Lie on your back. Raise your left leg as high as you can, keeping your pelvis flat on the ground.
  2. Hold your lower thigh and encourage the leg to move toward your head.
  3. Flex your bottom foot to stretch your calf too.
  4. Hold for 30 seconds, then switch sides.
