Every Tuesday, Lindsay’s List hosts a series called ‘Tuesday Trainer‘ in which she showcases the favorite exercises and fitness moves of blogging fitness enthusiasts and personal trainers. Each week has a different theme, and if you visit regularly, you can use the videos to create your own workouts. How cool is that?
Yesterday’s theme was ‘your go-to stretch’ and I submitted this video;
Ever since I injured my lower back (an ‘overuse’ injury), I’ve been extra motivated to improve my hamstring flexibility. Tight hamstrings can pull on the hips, leading to postural deviations and lower back pain.
For lots more great stretching ideas from Lindsay and several of our FitFluential friends, head on over to ‘Tuesday Trainer‘!

Just pinned. Good stuff! People forget how important correct stretching is
Thanks! And you’re right; stretching shouldn’t be relegated to just 5 minutes at the end of our workouts!
I definitely need to focus on stretching more. Good video, thanks. Pinned it!
