Not to mention that hamstring tightness is correlated with lower back pain and even plantar fasciitis. • To unravel stubborn hamstring tightness, and potentially unravel the movement and postural patterns that may play a role in that tightness, we might need to try a different approach to stretching. Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) with the Elastic band is an approach that's often effective at increasing range of motion; it's a technique in which muscles are intentionally contracted, then intentionally relaxed. • But before we seek to release hamstring tightness using this method, let’s examine the origin of that tightness. • THE HAMSTRINGS: HOW THEY FUNCTION (AND TIGHTEN) • The hamstrings, a muscle group at the back of the thighs, consist of the semimembranosus, semitendinosus, and bicep femoris. They’re knee flexors and hip extensors . The hamstrings contract in poses like bridge, locust, and dancer pose, and they lengthen in poses like forward folds. • • The hamstrings can become tight for a number of reasons, including athletic activity. Walking and running and sports that entail a lot of running—like tennis and soccer—require the repeated contraction of the hamstrings to decelerate the knee extension and bring the lower legs toward the buttocks. • On the other end of the activity spectrum, sedentary behavior seems to play a role in hamstring tightness as well. Prolonged sitting, much maligned of late for its alleged role in everything from cardiovascular disease to cancer, may also be problematic for the hamstrings. One recent study, which found an “alarming” degree of hamstring tightness in healthy university students, concluded that sitting for extended periods (for example, in an educational setting) can be a significant factor in hamstring tightness. • While sitting, the hamstring muscles are inactive and at their shortest; and they may become accustomed to this shortness. Furthermore, sitting can weaken the gluteals, leading to compensatory overwork by the hamstrings. Sitting can also negatively impact circulation to the lower extremities. Since circulation is important for muscle functioning and healing, it is possible that sitting for long periods after intense workouts may make it harder for muscles to repair themselves. • Lower-crossed syndrome (LCS), in which the pelvis may be posteriorly tilted (tilted backward) or excessively anteriorly tilted (tilted forward), is characterized by a pattern of muscular imbalances that include the tightness of the hamstrings and the weakness of the gluteal and abdominal muscles. Hamstring tightness may be caused in part by weak gluteals and abdominals; the overcompensation by the hamstrings for that weakness may then lead to further weakening of those underutilized muscles • Please leave a comment for any specific question with this video. • #hamstringstightness #yoga #flexibility • My Social accounts: • ⏩website: https://www.anniepilatesphysicalthera... subscribe for free workouts • MAIL ME: 2750 S Preston Rd Ste 116-104 Celina, Texas 75009 • I am a physical therapist with more than 17 years of experience and certified in Pilates for at least 14 years, Implementing all my skills and knowledge of helping my patients recover from injuries using a very low impact and highly effective strengthening. • To help support my Channel grow for quality video content about wellness, fitness, health, physical therapy, yoga and Pilates. • / pilatesphysicaltherapyannie • Instagram: / anniepilatesphysicaltherapist • Twitter / honeyannie07 • Reddit: / annie-pilates • Patreon: / anniepilatesphysicaltherapist (financial support) • Pinterest : / anniepilatesphysicaltherapist • Tumblr : https://www.tumblr.com/anniepilatesph... • Annie Pilates Physical therapist , recommend you consult with a physician before starting any exercise program.
