The Straddle

No equipment Hamstrings

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

How to do the The Straddle

  1. Sit on the floor with legs spread wide and spine tall.
  2. Hinge forward from the hips, reaching toward the floor in front of you.
  3. Keep your back flat rather than rounding at the lumbar.
  4. Hold without bouncing; breathe steadily and let the stretch deepen.
