[@HT-Physio]

[@andrewharewood1801]

Romanian deadlift is a good exercise. It make my legs strong and get rid of tight hamstrings.

[@emilympiti5131]

[@HT-Physio]

Thank you so much - I'm so pleased my video was helpful!

[@ColleenAnne20]

Thank you! This is really interesting. I knew my hamstrings were very tight, but I thought my back was causing it. Turns out it wasn't! Just tight hamstrings.

[@teresaewence4236]

Really useful clear instructions.

[@HT-Physio]

So pleased they are useful!

[@SusanHaydon-kp1jc]

I train a group of over fifty persons in our community center. I use your exercises and it makes me sure to do them some good and they really love it. So thank you very much vom my group in Munich.

[@cherriesnhoney]

well done, your demo is excellent

[@HT-Physio]

Thank you so much!

[@dreliza3651]

Thanks, very helpful😊 Can a person do both exercises, assuming have issues with both sciatica and hamstring?

[@edna7748]

Thank you so much. I love your videos.

[@HT-Physio]

So pleased you enjoy them :)

[@wantimahabirsingh5316]

Thank you. Very informative. Could a person do these exercises after a hip replacement.

[@georgikostadinov6799]

Well, it seems it is the nerve with me. Really nice test. I will try the exercise. Thank you

[@HT-Physio]

Wishing you all the best!

[@adrianapineda7976]

Many thanks, Will. Very useful advice!

[@HT-Physio]

Glad it was helpful!

[@yayoiubc]

Excellent video! I’ve been puzzled with my left hamstring. I’ll stick with this exercise until I see results

[@tamannaakther2946]

Great advice, I have siactica and I am always worried about suitable stretches

[@HT-Physio]

Absolutely, it's important to be cautious - I hope my videos can offer some guidance :)

[@LaurenRichmond-xc8gn]

How long should one do these and how long does one hold each stretch and how many repititions. How often per day day once, twice or more often. Thank you

[@hnormany999]

Thanks. I have had this tightness since high school!

[@HT-Physio]

I hope my video can help :)

[@Droppedonmyhead1]

Best description I’ve been able to find on KZbin and Internet. My hamstrings were so tight they had pulled my left leg back into a 65° angle. I am down to a 28° angle now, but still have very tight hamstrings that are balled up. I’m still having to walk with a walker and using a wheelchair because I’m so off-balance.

[@MarvelMedicalMnemonics]

Thank you!!

[@kajalmilani4150]

This is great! I want to know if sciatica pain goes away is it good to do the hamstring exercise?

[@bronwynquinn4477]

Fabulous! I am awaiting a total Knee replacement but lately the pain is at the back of my knee is in deep, and alll the tendon insertion points, or hamstring points on both tib and fib, are excruciating…I just tried this reverse stretch, and hope fully it can help .Great to find you…I am female age 61 for info..

[@shewolf6854]

Hi Will. Great channel by the way. Which is the best exercise gor a tight back and pelvis as its affecting my legs when i walk. Thankyou from Hampshire

[@carollowkee5353]

What happens when you stretch and gets stiffness thank you Will

[@ericchristopher1687]

Thank you. I tried the Romanian deadlift with two 10-lb dumb bells and really feel the stretch. I'll do these daily.

[@HT-Physio]

Wishing you all the best :)

[@donnadwarika6370]

Thank you always Will.

[@HT-Physio]

You're very welcome :)

[@noziphomngoma469]

With me back of right leg striking nerve can these help😊

[@Hallwayy]

Thank you so much

[@HT-Physio]

You're very welcome!

[@birotomodachi]

What about anterior pelvic tilt as another explanation for tight hamstrings and stretches not working? I was told I needed to core strength to rebalance the tilt and take some pressure off the already stretched hamstrings.

[@RacquelDuran-iw1nb]

Aloha Will! Just ordered your book and am excited to start the exercises and stretching that I need.

[@HT-Physio]

Aloha - thank you so much for purchasing my book, I hope you find it packed with interesting and helpful information!

[@catherinemurray2211]

I have neck disk issues and stenosis this wouldn’t work for me ???

[@mberchoco-tl6ee]

All I feel is quad strain. why???

[@charlessinclair8111]

When I do the Romanian Deadlift I get a tightening kind of spasm right at the top of the hamstring, more from the glute? Good sign or not?

[@retiredhappy]

With each exercise it would be useful to understand why you might not or should no do it. For example, people with osteoarthritis in the lower back should not do it.

[@Scorpion-b1e]

I have bad posterior pelvic tilt and can't even sit with my back straight.

[@kathleenverner2250]

Will, cuz when I've been my knee and move my lower leg toward my butt my hamstring hurts and bulges but the Romanian deadlift does not seem to help because I feel no tightness or resistance. Can you offer any ideas, other ways to relax my hamstrings.

[@rodolfoongsiako1949]

I undergo tlif operation 6 months ago l4l5 , since then my i can feel a heavy stiffness in tde back of my legs exactly what you are explaining that it is not the hamstring , because after 3 months of rehabilitation it did not do o any good result , can i do the exercises that you elaborated in your video ?

[@joseenoel8093]

Amputation crosses my mind, would that be cheating, too quick a fix? Not like I wouldn't still have one good leg to stand on, bon weekend everyone!

[@jacintheng4280]

🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🥰 💪🏻 💯

[@ifsaica]

Hi Will, are you ever going to visit Southern California? I still would like to take you on a date. I’m a teacher with a very easy going demeanor. I’m only asking because good friends told me take care of myself, instead of others. Sorry to bother. Alex from Los Angeles.

[@jeanauguste-f7i]

Hi I get cramp I my legs when I try to touch my foot to my behind why is this?

[@BetterMe981]

Same here. I wish someone would answer 🫤

[@adamlax27]

Me too

[@doctorclutterbuster8791]

It’s either a lack of magnesium or dehydration

[@andrebugotti576]

Drink a lot of water

[@deevine7940]

I get that too. My solution: I bend, cramp, straighten- relax- bend- cramp- straighten- relax- bend and stretch. I just have to try a few times over and go slowly and it works after a few times.

[@tinad8561]

Nice. Is there a deadlift that works for the Achilles and whatever tendon wraps the ankle as well? I need all 3.

[@gillcooper6602]

Hi it’s my knee that hurts when I do this

[@sachithaattigadde105]

❤❤

[@dinosemr8141]

[@laurenvicker4826]
