Keterbatasan fleksibilitas otot hamstring merupakan salah satu masalah muskuloskeletal yang dapat ditemukan pada individu usia muda, terutama pada kelompok dengan aktivitas sedentari dan durasi duduk yang berkepanjangan. Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) stretching dan Paschimottanasana merupakan latihan yang berpotensi meningkatkan fleksibilitas, namun penelitian mengenai penerapan kombinasi keduanya masih terbatas. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menganalisis efektivitas kombinasi PNF stretching dan Paschimottanasana terhadap fleksibilitas otot hamstring pada individu usia muda. Metode Penelitian menggunakan desain pre-experimental dengan rancangan one-group pretest-posttest. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 10 orang yang dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Intervensi diberikan sebanyak tiga kali seminggu selama empat minggu dengan total 12 sesi. Fleksibilitas hamstring diukur menggunakan sit and reach test sebelum dan setelah intervensi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa rerata skor sit and reach test meningkat dari 12,70±3,71 cm sebelum intervensi menjadi 15,90±4,07 cm setelah intervensi, dengan rerata peningkatan sebesar 3,20±1,32 cm. Hasil uji Paired Sample t-Test menunjukkan nilai p=0,003 (p<0,05), yang menunjukkan adanya peningkatan fleksibilitas yang signifikan setelah pemberian kombinasi PNF stretching dan Paschimottanasana. Berdasarkan hasil tersebut disimpulkan bahwa kombinasi PNF stretching dan Paschimottanasana berpotensi meningkatkan fleksibilitas otot hamstring pada individu usia muda dengan keterbatasan fleksibilitas. Namun, diperlukan penelitian dengan sampel lebih besar, kelompok kontrol, dan desain randomized controlled trial untuk memperkuat bukti efektivitas intervensi
