Watch the originalFour daily exercises β single-leg good morning, straddle good morning, split squat pulses, and horse stance β build active hamstring and hip strength rather than passive stretching, which is why passive stretching alone fails to improve splits.
Key takeaways
All four mobility exercises: 2 sets daily before training, 10 reps + 10s hold on final rep
All four mobility exercises: 2 sets daily before training, 10 reps + 10s hold on final rep
- Each exercise follows the same protocol: 10 controlled reps, pause 10 seconds in the deepest position on rep 10.
- Daily practice recommended; trainer expects measurable mobility improvement within one month.
Weak hamstrings need strengthening, not passive stretching β active flexibility builds real range
Weak hamstrings need strengthening, not passive stretching β active flexibility builds real range
- Passive hamstring stretches provide no movement, no active flexibility, and no strength β the muscle stays weak and restricted.
- Single-leg good morning locks the knee, anteriorly tilts the pelvis, and loads the hamstring from glute to Achilles under control.
Horse stance: posterior pelvic tilt (tuck tailbone under) is required β not anterior tilt like the other exercises
Horse stance: posterior pelvic tilt (tuck tailbone under) is required β not anterior tilt like the other exercises
- 5-step-width stance, torso upright, knees forward and out, tailbone tucked β this distinguishes it from the good morning variations.
- Target is building to a 3-minute hold from a 60-second starting point via one daily set.
