Effective Hamstring Stretch for Runners - Post-Run Recovery Technique

Discover the ultimate hamstring stretch for runners in this detailed tutorial presented by Elite Healers Sports Massage. This stretch, known for targeting the semimembranosus, semitendinosus, biceps femoris (primary muscles), as well as the gastrocnemius and soleus (secondary muscles), is ideal for anyone looking to enhance flexibility and muscle recovery post-run.

Follow along as we demonstrate how to execute this stretch with proper form. Begin by standing with one knee bent and the other leg extended straight in front, toes pointing upwards. This alignment helps deeply stretch the hamstrings and calves, crucial for runners and athletes from various sports such as basketball, cycling, and martial arts. Maintain a straight back and lean forward to increase the stretch, holding for at least 30 seconds.

Adam Cardona, our expert therapist, will guide you through adjusting the intensity of this stretch to suit your flexibility level, making it a perfect addition to your recovery routine. Regularly performing this stretch can aid in preventing injuries like hamstring strains and calf strains, crucial for maintaining your athletic performance.
