Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Seated Hamstring Foam Rolling.
A seated self-myofascial release drill that rolls the hamstrings (back of the thighs) over a foam roller to relieve tightness, improve tissue quality, and restore hip and knee mobility. It is a useful warm-up or recovery technique, especially after squatting, running, or prolonged sitting.
The Seated Hamstring Foam Rolling 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.
