Gain Flexibility for Tight Hamstrings with This 15-Minute Yoga Flow (Free Class)


Never miss a FREE class. SUBSCRIBE HERE

 
 
Tight hamstrings are very common for many of us and can result in lower back pain and tight hips. The hamstrings are muscles that are located in the back of the thigh and are responsible for movement in the knee and hips.
 

It’s important to stretch and lengthen the hamstrings to avoid injury, advance in your yoga practice, and ensure healthy mobility for years to come.

 
When the hamstrings are tight, they can in turn create tension in the hips and back. When we gain flexibility in the hamstrings, it helps with movement such as running, hiking, and yoga. As you gain hamstring flexibility, you’ll also be able to increase the range of motion in your hips.
 
It’s important to stretch and lengthen the hamstrings to avoid injury, advance in your yoga practice, and ensure healthy mobility for years to come. Follow along with YouAligned instructor Kelly Pender as she guides you through a 15-minute yoga flow for tight hamstrings.
 
Keep revisiting the video and watch your flexibility increase over time. Take it slow, be safe, and don’t force it – flexibility comes with time, practice, and patience. Namaste!
