Exercise Benefits

The hamstrings consist of three muscles that run down the back of each of your thighs. These muscles are primarily responsible for the flexion of the knee joint and the extension of the thigh. Stretching your hamstrings after exercising keeps them flexible and strong and is crucial for improving your athletic ability and prevent potential injuries.

Intensity And Duration

Hold the hamstring stretch for 20 to 30 seconds on each leg and deepen the stretch gently and continuously. You should always do this stretch after a lower body workout, to keep your hamstrings healthy and in shape.
