Tight hamstrings are quite a common ailment. Tightness can have a genetic component, as physiological traits, such as being born with short hamstrings, can lead to tightness. Tight hamstrings can also be caused by insufficient stretching, which lead to the loss of flexibility. After exercising, a person should stretch the bodies muscles for 20 minutes.
Tight hamstrings make a person more prone to tearing a muscle because the muscle cannot stretch as far as it needs to for activity to take place. The hamstrings help to control the hips and pelvis when walking and running, so they can also contribute to lower back problems.
