Yoga for Tight Hamstrings

The hamstrings are tendons that make up the posterior region of the thighs and aid in varied functions that involve the hips and knees. Functions like walking, jumping, running,  and bending, as well as any other function that involve any leg movement are guided by the hamstrings. In that manner, tight hamstrings restrict one's movement and make it difficult to carry through any activity with ease. Along with that, tight hamstrings could also lead to lower back ache by putting too much pressure on the pelvis. It therefore becomes necessary to undertake certain exercises that will help loosen the hamstrings and allow for better movement. In that direction, yoga for tight hamstrings is one of the most effective ways in which one can lead to the loosening of tight hamstrings. In this following article, we will take you through varied yoga poses for tight hamstrings that can be used.
