Hamstrings: Standing Stretch

  • Prop your left heel up on a surface that is a little lower than your hip, such as a chair or bench. Flex your foot.
  • To increase the stretch, bend forward toward your flexed foot by creasing at your hips. Hold for 30 seconds and switch legs.

If the previous stretch isn't deep enough for you, then try this variation. It's perfect for doing on a bench after a run in the park.
