Hammy Happy! Stretches to Stop That Back-of-Leg Tightness!

Dec 17, 2025

Description

This targeted mobility session focuses on relieving hamstring tightness commonly felt along the back of the leg after running. The routine uses controlled, runner-specific stretches to improve flexibility while maintaining stability through the hips and pelvis.

Rather than aggressive lengthening, the exercises encourage gradual release and improved range of motion, helping runners feel looser without compromising strength. It’s particularly useful after longer runs, speed sessions, or periods of increased training load.

Ideal for runners managing recurring tightness or looking to maintain healthy, resilient hamstrings as part of their recovery routine.
