Tight hamstrings are one of the most common movement limitations affecting athletes, golfers, runners, and active adults. Limited hamstring mobility can reduce hip motion, alter pelvic mechanics, contribute to lower back discomfort, and negatively affect athletic performance. In this article, we'll demonstrate four hamstring mobility exercises that use the unique reactive movement of Core-Tex to improve flexibility from multiple directions instead of simply stretching in one plane.
We can't achieve full mobility and resiliency to injury unless we challenge the hamstrings in 3 dimensional ways. Lengthening and loading through multiple vectors challenges all aspects of the muscle and connective tissue, exposing them to the necessary stresses to keep them mobile and strong.
This video provides you with detailed set up and applications of four hamstring mobility moves that you will feel immediate benefits. You have never addressed your hamstrings like this and Core-Tex makes it easy for you.
Four Core-Tex Hamstring Mobility Moves
Exercise 1: Standing with involved leg fixed.
Exercise 2: Half kneeling with involved leg fixed.
Exercise 3: Standing with involved leg on Core-Tex
Exercise 4: Standing with both legs on Core-Tex and upper body anchored
