Practice Point #9 - Yoga for Tight Hamstrings
/In today's Practice Point we have a question from Sai in the USA.
Can you suggest some yoga asanas to help with really tight hamstrings?
I could write an essay on this topic, but I'll spare you and just suggest my top 3 recommendations.
Supta Padangusthasana to stretch the hamstrings. if necessary keep the leg on the floor bent.
If you run or ride a bike on a regular basis this is contributing to the tightness...
Jathara Parivartanasana (knees bent) to release the tightness in the back and hips.
