How to do it
- Lie on your back with one leg extended above you, with the hip at ninety degrees. Keep the other leg flat on the floor.
- Loop a belt, band, or rope over the ball of your foot. This will be your starting position.
- Pull on the belt to create tension in the calves and hamstrings. Hold this stretch for 10-30 seconds, and repeat with the other leg.
