This Is How To Stretch Your Hamstrings [Video]
We have several techniques here at Lastics to really get into your hamstrings and stretch them like you've never felt before. This is one of them. If your leg doesn't make it to 90 degrees when you straighten it, just lower your hands to behind your thighs, which will lower your leg too. The most important thing is to hold your thigh still against your rib until is starts to shake. Don't just unfold the leg without keeping the resistance on it. The other common mistake is to release the flex in the foot too early. Make sure you don't point your foot until after you have fully extended your leg.
It's intense, but I promise, it works!
Lastics is the only stretching method with transformational techniques that teach you how to significantly & safely improve your flexibility. Born from the world of dance and made for all levels, Lastics Stretch is loved by everyone!
