Hamstring Stretch

Spin Class Stretches

2 / 7

by Emily Bibb 1

Hamstring Stretch

This hamstring stretch is similar to ballet leg stretches using the barre, but can easily be done using a stationary bike or an elevated surface to offer a deep and effective 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.

Hamstrings still tight? Consider these five stretches.
