I am a bit stiff walking this morning. What are your go-to stretches for the hamstrings? I think that is where most of the tightness is.

I do, I see him tonight. It's just funny that the stiffness from my workout on Tuesday hit me late last night into today. I will try the yoga move.

Yoga Journal has a collection of hamstring openers:

Some of those are a little intense, but these three are excellent, and pretty easy:
