Need some serious advise on how to stretch my hamstrings

[MFT81]

Yes! these help tremendously with putting size on ur hams and stretching them out. To get an even better stretch stand on a stepping box and do them. Causes the weight to go down further causing your hams to stretch.

Not needed if the back starts to round, YOU MUST keep a natural arch and keep your chest elevated or you'll risk injury in the spinal column. I have never seen anyone short enough to do an RDL or SLD where they could maintain correct posture and still needed to stand on a platform.

I'm 5'6"... I do SLDLs (straight leg.. not just stiff leg) on a 6" platform.. lowering to my instep on each rep.

My back does not round over...and i use a shitload of weight where possible.

I've always pushed the range of motion on this and other exercises to maintain a high level of flexibility.

Hip, hamstring, and shoulder flexibility training should be a conscious part of every trainee's program.

Well, there you have it. I stand corrected.
