Matt Hsu's own battle with chronic pain from the age of 16 in his feet, knees, hips, back, shoulders, elbows, forearms, wrists, hands, and head gives him a uniquely thorough understanding of musculoskeletal pain, the ways in which it can undermine an entire life, and the mental and physical hurdles that keep people from getting out of it.

When not filming videos, he's working out in the living room, surfing, learning dance or gymnastics moves, or riding a bike with his son in tow.

ABOUT THIS VIDEO

Learn how to test hamstring flexibility and then two exercises to increase flexibility in your hamstrings.

The hamstrings are a group of three muscles in the back of your thigh. Your hamstring flexibility can determine whether you can touch your toes or not, and can also impact how you sit, walk, and run. If your hamstrings are tight, take a few minutes to do these two exercises that will help you improve your hamstring flexibility. You'll be able to touch your toes sitting AND standing as you get better at these hamstring stretches.

Strengthening your hip flexors can help you improve hamstring flexibility and help you improve on the sit and reach test.
