How to perform

Anchor a resistance band low to the ground. Lie face down, legs extended, feet near the anchor. Secure the band around your ankles. Engage your core, pressing hips into the mat. Flex your knees, pulling heels towards your glutes against the band’s resistance. Pause, contracting your hamstrings. Slowly extend legs back to the start, maintaining control. Repeat.

Tips

Secure the band to prevent slippage. Stabilize hips by engaging your core. Use slow, controlled movements. Avoid momentum; focus on hamstring engagement. Adjust band tension as needed. Exhale during leg curl, inhale during extension.
