Melt Into These 16 Flexibility-Boosting Yoga Poses and Unknot Muscles You Forgot You Had

"Pyramid Pose adds a little more oomph for the back of the legs or hamstrings," Lara told POPSUGAR. "Put more weight in the hands for even more stretch."

• Stand with both feet together at the front of your mat. Step one foot directly behind you, about two feet.
• Bend from the hips to place your hands on either side of your front foot, keeping your front leg slightly bent. Keep your back as long and straight as possible to increase the stretch in your hamstrings.
• Hold for five deep breaths, then lift your torso up. Repeat this pose with your other leg forward.
