A hamstring stretch refers to a stretching pose or technique where you extend your hamstring (underside of your thigh) to its full capacity. When performing a hamstring stretch, it is important to keep your neck straight and avoid arching it, because by doing so, you are putting undue stress and straining your spine instead of targeting your hamstrings. </span></span>
