Carol Beringer's Amazing Movement Podcast | Season 2, Ep. 5: Studio Exercises - Hamstring Release (4.5 min)

Transform tight hamstrings into supple, functional legs with Carol's magical movement moment! Most of us have tight hamstrings because we use the front of our legs so much more in daily life. This supine leg series is an amazing way to start your day and create lasting change in how your legs feel and function.

Carol guides you through a complete routine including point-and-flex ankle work, leg circles, the "pizza on the ceiling" technique (a brilliant core stabilizer!), and heel-to-toe sequences. All while keeping your spine neutral and engaging your core without effort. This is the kind of movement that makes your body crave more.

Perfect for morning routines or anytime you need to release tension. Just lie down, listen, and move with Carol through this game-changing sequence.
