Stretch Data
Main Muscle Worked: Hamstrings
Other Muscles Worked: None
Equipment: None

Video Guide: Windows Media - MPEG

Tips: Lie flat on your back, Bend one knee, and put that foot flat on the floor to stabilize your spine. Extend the other leg in the air. If you're tight, you wont be able to straighten it. That's okay. Bend the knee so that the sole of the lifted foot faces the ceiling (or as close as you can get it). Slowly straighten the legs as much as possible and then pull the leg toward your nose. if holding your leg causes neck and shoulder tension, hold your leg or foot with a towel or strap instead. Switch sides.
