Standing Hamstring Stretch: Stand in neutral position. Place your right foot one step length in front of you. Inhale. Exhale and slowly bend forward from the hip joint, keeping your spine aligned. Place both of your hands on your right knee, keeping that knee straight, but not hyper-extended. Flex your right foot, pointing the toes towards the ceiling. You can bend your left knee for an additional stretch. Hold for ten seconds, continuing to breathe. Push your back up slowly with your hands and lower your flexed foot to the floor. Repeat five times on each leg, alternating sides. This ergocize stretches hamstrings, reduces muscle tension in back of legs, increases circulation in legs, and helps prevent Lower Back Pain.
