Supine Hamstring Stretch

by Kaira

The back of the leg gets a long, unhurried hold while the floor keeps the low back where it wants to be.

How to do it

  1. Lie on your back with one foot on the floor, knee bent.
  2. Lift the other leg and hold behind the thigh, or loop a strap or towel around the foot.
  3. Straighten the raised leg only as far as it goes without the knee locking hard.
  4. Hold at an easy stretch, breathe, then swap legs.
