HAMSTRINGS
Foam Roll Hamstrings
BeginnerBodyweight
A self-massage drill that works knots and tension out of the hamstrings using a foam roller. It's handy before training to prime the muscles or afterward to speed recovery and keep the back of your legs moving freely.
How to do it
- 1
Sit on the floor and set your hands behind you for support.
- 2
Rest the back of one thigh on the roller and cross the other ankle over it to add pressure.
- 3
Push through your planted foot to roll from just below the glute down toward the knee.
- 4
When you hit a tender area, pause there and breathe until it eases off.
- 5
Switch legs and repeat for the same amount of time.
