How the FUCK do I improve hamstring flexibility? I tried doing pic rels faggot elephant walks and it didnt work at all
>>75477447Gotta stretch glutes and calves along with hammies. Just stretch 2x a day. Sit less.
Adduction machine and get maximum stretch
>>75477462Whats the best way
>>75477447Hamstring flexibility requires entire re-design of your posture.99% of the time, it's because you're not even stretching your hamstring due to your bad posture.Literally wall stretch.Go stand next to a wall.Bend at waist and put hands on wall.Now feel yourself pushing away from the wall with your hamstrings not your ass.If your ass starts going away from the wall you're doing it wrong, we want the hamstrings to go away from the wall.Now as you're doing this you keep leaning forward until you are a perfect bend.Congrats this is the position your hamstrings actually have to be in to stretch. If your hamstrings are not in this lengthened position when you stretch. It is not actually a hamstring stretch because your hamstring is never actually lengthened.Now apply this same feeling to every single stretch you do.Always imagine the hamstring pushing away from the wall, that's all you gotta do.If you're not feeling it, go back to the wall and relearn what you're activating, it might take a few weeks m8 to get the connection.This is the unironic perfect hamstring posture position, so once you lengthen to this point you technically do not need more, just simply stand up while holding this hamstring posture and now stretch your hip flexors and you're 100% good.The reason why this is the perfect hamstring posture is because any less than this and you cannot have 100% glute activation, while any more might cause posterior pelvic tilt.

you get a rope and put it around your foot and pull. This is the speedrun way.

>>75477447>How the FUCK do I improve hamstring flexibility? I tried doing pic rels faggot elephant walks and it didnt work at allstep one leg forward, make sure your knee is locked in that leg, bend in hips on that leg, move your torso around to find your hamstring, tilt pelvis away from worked leg u will find also your adductors >pic rels faggotboth his hamstrings are flexed lol - hamstring goes through hip and knee joint so i wanna open both of these joints as i am describing >and then what? hang your torso on that hamstring and wait few seconds, then a little longer >>75478378>you get a rope and put it around your foot and pull. This is the speedrun way.2 birds with one stone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvviyW1ZRaQi don't like it for hamstring though, u have to pull a tad too hard for my taste, gravity works for me better>Now feel yourself pushing away from the wall with your hamstrings not your ass.nah, u won't stretch shit with both hams at once u can pull hundred kilos or 200 kilos or 300 kilos with both hams at once - u get the pictureone at a time, just keep pelvis fused to spine as u bend and your knee locked, and move around torso to find the hamstring, each head separately when u get a hang of it
>>75478538>nah, u won't stretch shit with both hams at once u can pull hundred kilos or 200 kilos or 300 kilos with both hams at once - u get the picturelike when i am doing this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpZmx6huFN4i need to fucking help with other hand on knee sometimes because my quads cramp xD u need quite a force to actually stretch big muscle, pecs the same - i stand sideways to walll and latch elbow behind me with forearm flat on wall and bent elbow and make sure shoulder is rolled backwards (if u roll shoulder forward it will be front delt not pecs) and i hang entire weight on it slightly pressuring so that it doesn't slide
>>75477447Dudes makes this shit elementary. You have to be literally retarded and impatient to not get results with his info
>>75477447- if you put up one leg on a table while standing you should turn your pelvis in the direction of that leg - that should stretchyour glutes- if you are able to reach your toes (or better yet foot) pull on them (nerve flossing)- if you are not yet able then just grab your shin and turn your torso/pelvis as much as you can and try to bend forward (preferably with straight back preventing unnecessary disc loading)- use rest days and progressive loads, work your way up from 10 seconds to 15 minutes at a time, do 1/4th or 1/16th on rest days compared to load days>>75477658sneak oil, does not work (on everybody) because too tight muscles need time AND load (aka serious weight) to start to lenghten also that "visualization" is just laughable unscientific bs ("perfect posture" in shortened position! kek)
