  • While stretching is important, it can be dangerous if you're not doing it properly.
  • Hi, I'm Rebecca Brayton and welcome to WatchMojo.com.
  • Our host Veronica spoke with the fitness experts at Victoria Park about the do's and don'ts of stretching.
  • So Paul, let's talk about what the most common mistake you see in the gym when it comes to stretching.
  • The infamous hamstring stretch against gravity.
  • Please demo it.
  • Basically, what it does, it increases muscle tear.
  • People say, oh, I feel it, I feel a lot in my hamstring, but you're actually using gravity.
  • It's like almost a stiff leg deadlift.
  • The problem is that, okay, I don't want you to get hurt.
  • The problem is that hamstring don't exist.
  • People think of hamstring, it's three muscle.
  • There's the bicep femoris, that's more lateral.
  • Actually the bicep femoris is separated in two.
  • That's what we call a bicep.
  • The semi-tendinosis, it's more longitudinal.
  • And the membranosis, that the fibers are more oblique.
  • Then to stretch it, you need to do three different type of stretching to get the hamstrings.
  • Then we'll do the demo with, and Nick's going to demonstrate the proper way to really stretch the bicep femoris, semi-tendinosis, and semi-membranosis.
  • Very important for keeping your posture and also for your pelvis and avoiding hamstring pulls.
  • These muscles are responsible to keep you standing up.
  • That's why they're very important to have a very good balance, especially in between them.
  • Nick's going to do the demo.
  • Just have a seat.
  • We'll use the right leg.
  • I want to get the left leg out of the picture.
  • It should always be outside of the midline.
  • I want to assure that her pelvis is straight and she feels her two sit bones.
  • First we're going to do the bicep femoris.
  • It's the one that is the most tight in most people.
  • You want to bring the leg across the midline.
  • You want to pull the toes very hard to create tension on the fascia.
  • Slight internal rotation.
  • We'll call that eversion.
  • Now bring your arms in front to lock in the scapula to really isolate the fascia of the bicep femoris.
  • Keeping pulling very hard inward with the toes.
  • You want to push your knee down as hard as you can.
  • You want to feel like your heel will lift and at the same time you want to feel very very tall.
  • If you don't feel enough, keeping the same tension, you want to bring your belly button forward arching your back.
  • You feel that?
  • And you'll feel a lot of heat doing it.
  • You want to keep it for about 30 seconds, then release slowly.
  • Now immediately we'll go into the semi-tendinosis.
  • It's more the middle one.
  • Same movement, slight internal rotation.
  • Arms in front toward the leg.
  • Same principle, very tall.
  • Push the knee into the floor, lift the heel.
  • This you'll feel that more in the middle.
  • You feel the difference?
  • The first one was more lateral.
  • This one you'll feel more in the middle.
  • Hold it for about 30 seconds, release slowly.
  • Then you want to slightly open the leg.
  • Again, pull hard on the toes.
  • Leg outside.
  • This one's going to be for a semi-membranosis.
  • You want to bring your arms away because it's very close to the adductors.
  • Then bring your belly button forward, lock your knee, pull very good.
  • You feel the movement?
  • You'll feel the different angle?
  • It's going to feel more medially close to the adductors.
  • That ensures me that she stretched all three parts of her hamstring and prevents a lot of knee injuries and also hip injuries and also possible of a tear of the hamstring if she does at high speed.
  • 30 seconds and you release.
  • You should do three rounds of 30 seconds into each movement, always after training and latest at night possible.
