Stretches: Hamstring Stretch on Chair

http://www.liveawesome.com

The Hamstring Stretch on a Chair isolates the hamstring muscles more than just touching your toes! This is one of our stretch exercises that we encourage you do for the start or finish of your workout…

Grab a chair and put it in front of you.

Put your right heel on the seat of the chair and lean forward with both hands and touch your toes.

Your knees can be slightly bent if you feel a strain.

Make sure your hips are facing forward like headlights on a car to get the best stretch.

Hold, then switch legs.
