The "stretched" leg is extended behind your body while the other leg is striaght or slighty bent. A comfortable stretch should be felt at the front of the stretched thigh.

Hold this position for a count of 5 seconds. Repeat 3 times, then perform this movement on the other leg.

Tip:
A good exercise to do in conjunction with the hamstrings stretch.*
Caution:
Do not continue if you experience increased groin pain after you finish this exercise

Repeat this sequence 5 times.
Perform 2 times per day.
Perform 5 days per week.

*NOTE: It is normal to experience slight discomfort while performing stretches or certain exercises. However, if any exercise or stretch causes pain or more than just slight discomfort, please discontinue the exercise or stretch.
