Tips

Focus on squeezing your hamstrings tightly at the top of the movement to maximize muscle engagement and ensure proper form. Control the movement throughout the entire range of motion, resisting the urge to rush and feeling the stretch as you extend your leg. Maintain a neutral spine throughout the exercise by engaging your core and avoiding any arching or rounding of your back. Point your toes slightly outward to help activate the hamstrings and prevent ankle strain.
