Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Kneeling Toe-Up Hamstring Stretch.
A kneeling stretch that targets the hamstrings and calves by extending one leg forward with the toes pointing up while resting on the opposite knee. The toe-up position adds a light calf stretch alongside the primary hamstring lengthening.
The Kneeling Toe-Up Hamstring Stretch is a foundational movement that builds strength and muscle through controlled, progressive overload. Train it 1 to 2 times per week with 3 to 5 working sets per session, gradually adding weight or reps as form holds up.
