Ideal Stretch Hamstring Stretching Device

Product Information

If you’re struggling to stretch your hamstrings effectively at home without a stretching partner, you might consider trying out a hamstring stretching device. Then there's this fancy piece of Technogym equipment, but it's not meant for home use, and I'm not sure it would work well as I would expect my lower back to just round in compensation. Once the machine is properly set up make sure to get the most out of the movement by using controlled reps with an emphasis on slowing down the eccentric/descedning part of the rep and pausing for a bit at the top when your hamstrings are fully stretched.
