HAMSTRINGS

Leg Swing

BeginnerBodyweight

The leg swing is a dynamic stretch that loosens the hip flexors and hamstrings through a controlled front-to-back motion. Swinging the leg like a pendulum builds mobility, flexibility, and coordination before a workout. It's an easy, effective warm-up to prime the lower body for more demanding movements.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Stand about a forearm's length from a wall and place one hand on it for balance.

  2. 2

    Shift your weight onto one leg.

  3. 3

    Lift the other leg just off the floor and swing it forward, keeping the knee straight.

  4. 4

    Let it swing back down past your midline and behind you as far as it comfortably goes.

  5. 5

    Use a little momentum to feel the stretch through your hamstrings, hips, and quads.

  6. 6

    Switch legs and repeat.
