Lying Hamstring

Other Hamstrings

The Lying Hamstring is a stretching movement that targets your hamstrings. Here's how to do it with clean form.

How to do the Lying Hamstring

  1. Lie on your back with one leg extended flat and the other raised.
  2. Loop a strap or towel around the raised foot and gently pull it toward you.
  3. Keep the raised leg as straight as possible without locking the knee aggressively.
  4. Hold the stretch; don't yank — steady tension only.
