  • Join me for a 10 minute leg stretch pilates routine created for anyone who gets back pain and suffers from tight hamstrings and back muscles. There are both active and passive stretches to lengthen the muscles, relieve tension and this sequence can be used on its own or as part of any wellbeing fitness routine. If you spend a lot of time sitting this will be very beneficial for you too as it both lengthens and releases the back, hip and leg muscles. It's a lying sequence suitable for all ages, you just need to make sure you don't overstretch. Stretching should feel good, a gentle pull rather than any sharp pain so be easy on yourselves, listen to your body and just take the stretch to where it feels good for you. Enjoy!
    Take care and have a lovely day,
    Rachel x

    Rachel, I am so grateful you directed me to this video for my tight and painful hips after telling you in a recent live chat I had a problem sitting on floor and exercising from a straight leg position and bending forward or sitting cross legged. It feels so good, it helps relieve the tightness in lower back and hip area. I am adding it to the end of my daily Pilates exercise routine a few times a week now. Thank you for being so caring and helpful Rachel. 😘

    Great workout to do when you have finished a run. I am training for a half marathon and do this when I have finished a session. Very relaxing and I notice that my stiffness has reduced and my flexibility improved. Thank you!

      That's great to hear Kerwin, thanks for the feedback. Stretching out those muscles after a long run will help ease any tightness. Well done and keep it up!

    Thank you, im 17 and realized i cant do much without instant cramping. Im not as flexible as you while you do these stretches but hope to be someday, stretching used to feel miserable but i feel great after doing these and i think it has to do a lot with the incorporation of breathing exercises.

    I'm a motorcycle enduro rider, which is very demanding on the legs, I found recently I've been getting cramp in my inner thighs, so I've been doing your stretches and hopefully no more cramp because that is incredibly painful thanks.

      Hi Annie, please don't straigten your leg if it is painful. You want to feel a gentle pull to get the benefit but NO PAIN. 🤗
