Illustrated Lying Hamstring Curl
Lying Hamstring Curl
By doing the Lying Hamstring Curl, you will define the back of your legs so they are shapely and sexy.
Lie face down on bench with pad adjusted to fit behind ankles. If machine does not angle upper torso downward, it is recommended that a pillow be placed underneath stomach.
Position knees below bottom edge of bench or pad. Legs should be straight with knees aligned to the lever arm axis of motion and hands grasping handles or side of bench (if applicable).
Raise lever arm by flexing at the knees past 90°.
Return to start position.
Remember to keep hips in contact with bench at all times. Do not hyperextend the low back during movement.
