Workout difficulty
Easy
These exercises will allow you to stretch and improve the flexibility of the hamstrings (semitendinosus, semimembranous and hamstring). These muscles have the task of flexing the leg on the thigh and rotating it both medially and laterally. Stretching prevents injuries and reduces the likelihood of muscle trauma. Before performing exercises it is good to perform a few minutes of warm-up, which can be global (with movements useful to raise body temperature) or joint (with the execution of rotational movements). While stretching, it would be desirable to keep the diaphragm and "abdomen relax, breathing quietly. To do this, it is advisable to inhale the air from the nose (to have the right humidity) and exhale again from the nose, or better, from the mouth. During the stretching phase (which must last about 5-10 seconds), you exhale, when you reach the maximum stretch point you breathe in and continue to breathe quietly, staying at the point of maximum stretch for another 10-15 "; it is advisable not to exceed 30" between the stretch phase and reaching the maximum extension.
