Unlock Your Hamstrings…

Do your tight hamstrings feel like they’re holding you back?

Whether you’re aiming to kick like Jackie Chan or float into a handstand, improving your hamstring flexibility is key — and there’s a powerful method that can help: PAILs and RAILs.

Here’s how it works:
Passive Stretch (2 minutes): Begin by holding a deep hamstring stretch for 2 minutes. This helps relax the tissue and signals your body it’s safe to lengthen.

PAILs – Push (20 seconds): Next, press your heel down into the surface (a box or floor) without moving. This activates the stretched tissue, increasing strength at that range.

RAILs – Lift (15 seconds): Now, lift your leg off the surface by engaging the opposing muscles — your quads and hip flexors. Strengthening these is crucial for balanced, functional flexibility.

Incorporating this technique can lead to lasting improvements in flexibility, control, and performance — no matter your movement
