Instructions:
- 1Lie on your stomach on the leg curl machine with the lever pad on the back of your legs (just a few inches under the calves)
- 2Keeping the upper body flat on the bench, curl your legs up as far as possible without lifting the upper legs from the pad.
- 3After a second at the contracted position, bring the legs back to the initial position with a slow controlled motion.
- 4Repeat with the other leg.
- 5Continue alternating between the two legs for the desired amount of reps.
Tips:
- Do not use your back or hips to lift the weight; your thighs should do the work.
- As you return to the starting position, resist the weight to challenge your hamstring.
- Ensure to perform each set with a full range of motion.
- Do not exceed the training limit, always lift weights that are manageable.
