Toe Touch Stretches. Toe touch stretches, whether from a seated or standing position, are intended to stretch the hamstrings. In these stretches, you bend at the waist and try to touch your toes with your fingers. This action produces a stretching sensation in the back of the thighs and the lower back. Because the lower back is involved in the toe touch, it should not be performed. It carries a high potential for injury.
While the standing toe touch is the predominate stretch used to assess flexibility, you can perform a number of variations that can also help improve flexibility in the hamstrings and erector spinae. Seated toe touches allow you to isolate one leg at a time to improve the emphasis on the erector spinae.
