The Proper Way of Using a Yoga Strap to Increase Hamstrings Flexibility

Posted by Paul Zaichik on

When teaching hamstring flexibility techniques most Yoga teachers simply place the strap under the sole of the foot.
And this is used in various positions such as sitting and supine.
Strap under the sole of the foot works in Yoga but only under two conditions.
Number one: The stretch is passive what is what most Yoga stretches are.
Number two: The ankle is pretty tight.
If the stretching technique is moving such as ZST’s are, there is a much higher chance that the strap will fly off. At the same time if the ankle is flexible the toes will be pulled towards the body and the strap can easily slide off as well.
In EasyFlexibility we use a “heel to toe” set up. This is a set up that prevents the strap from sliding off and at the same time correctly stretches the whole posterior chain including the lower leg. A strap is placed behind the heel, crisscrossed over from under the foot and pulled through behind the toes.
This set up works for standing, sitting and supine position. Here the effort is not on a strap staying in strength and all the energy and focus can be on lengthening the muscle.

Zaichik Stretching Method is different from anything you've ever tried before:

It is designed to Isolate muscle actions one by one, to ensure they are doing their job.

This means that every single stretch is scientifically designed to target one muscle at a time, translating into a very safe and nourishing experience for your body.

Zaichik Stretching Technique takes care of the muscles that are tighter first.

Tight muscles translate into easy injuries.

Traditional stretching methods focus on all muscle stretches at the same time.

Zaichik Stretching Technique (ZST) allows you to focus on muscles that are the underlying cause of slow progress and potential injury.

Releasing tight muscles first allows for a much more enjoyable stretching session, leaving you feeling renewed, relaxed and refreshed and yet invigorated to tackle any task of the day.

Zaichik Stretching Method allows easier focus since you are working on one specific area at a time.

Instead of doing the same stretches over and over again with ZST method you will be able to strategically focus on a specific area of your body.

This allows muscle memory to kick in and help you achieve steady results.

You can do it all on your own!

No pushing or bouncing is necessary, not even a partner.

This is freedom at it's finest, no longer will you need a partner or anything but your own body and the floor to get flexible fast.

This means that you can do these very enjoyable stretches at the time that works for you.

No need to go anywhere or spend tons of money on one-on-one stretching sessions that don't work.

With ZST you acquire
much more than freedom, you acquire the KEY to success!

Zaichik Stretching Method is PAIN FREE!

Remember that phrase "No Pain - No Gain?"

Well, it doesn't apply to our method.

Each stretch is designed to be Pain-FREE.

Thereby eliminating discomfort to allow you to continue training to achieve faster results.

Zaichik Stretching Method is the only stretching method that is NATURAL for YOUR BODY!

Totally safe, since it was designed according to what is natural for your body.

Paul Zaichik, a World Renowned Fitness & Flexibility expert has spent many decades perfecting the Zaichik Stretching Techniques.

Having tested this method on himself, his family and thousands of people around the world the conclusion was evident.

Everyone achieved results without injuries!

This is possible due to the succession of each element forming the ZST.


Each technique responding to the natural movement of the body, transforming it from within.

Gains are permanent and steady.

Unlike other stretching techniques ZST is designed to give you results that last.

No longer will you need to start over every time you stretch.

Utilizing muscle memory, your body will start from where it left off the last time you stretched, working in unison with your mind and your desire to progress further.

The endless struggle of mind vs matter will come to an end where your body will be in tune with your mind allowing for fast flexibility gains steadily helping you to attain your goals.

Zaichik Stretching Method combines Strength & Flexibility into One workout session!

It is very enjoyable to do, and feels more like a workout.

If you're worried that you will not have enough time to squeeze in a full body workout, you will.

With ZST method you're getting much more than just a stretching routine.

You are also getting a strength training workout.

Strengthening and stretching your muscles in one session is a win-win for your body, keeping it a lean, mean, strength and flexibility performing machine.

Each ZST session will have you walk away refreshed, relaxed and yet invigorated ready for the most rigorous activity of the day.

With ZST results are visible right away since the stretch reflex is avoided!

This only means one thing: You'll get to show off your flexibility in no time!
