LEVEL UP YOUR HAMSTRING GAME - Your hamstring muscles are skeletal muscles. They’re voluntary muscles, meaning you control how they move and work. You have three hamstring muscles at the back of your thigh. You use these muscles to walk, climb stairs, do squats and perform many other leg movements. The hamstring muscles are very susceptible to injury, especially in athletes that run and sprint. Suddenly stopping, slowing down or changing direction puts a lot of strain on these muscles. Extending your leg when running can also overstretch these muscles. 3 KEY 🔑 FUNCTIONS: - BENDING THE KNEE JOINT - EXTENDING THE HIP JOINT - ROTATING THE HIP JOINT ADD THESE TO YOUR WORKOUT BAG 💼 #hamstring #hamstringworkout #hamstrings #hamstringstretch #torontotrainer #torontopersonaltrainer
