Muscle of the Week: Hamstrings
🏃 MEET YOUR HAMSTRINGS.
Whether you’re logging miles, walking the beach, playing tennis, or chasing a golf ball, your hamstrings are working harder than you may realize.
Located along the back of your thigh, your hamstrings are a group of three muscles that help bend your knee and extend your hip. They play an important role in walking, running, accelerating, and slowing down.
When your hamstrings feel tight, you may notice:
• Less comfortable movement through the hips and knees
• A shorter or more restricted stride
• Tightness along the back of the thigh
• Everyday movements like bending or reaching feeling a little less fluid
That’s one reason flexibility and mobility are an important part of an active lifestyle.
At Stretch Zone SSI, practitioner-assisted stretching is designed to help improve range of motion and movement quality, so you can keep moving through the activities you enjoy.
The miles may happen on the road. Better movement starts before you get there.
Your FIRST session is always on us.
