Standing Hamstring Curl

Happy Thanksgiving!!! In celebration of this holiday, this month’s WOW’s will focus on performing leg exercises. These exercises can help improve lower body strength and sculpt your muscles.

We won’t break a leg or have a turkey leg but work your legs!

Exercise: Standing hamstring curl.

How to perform: Place your hands on your hips and bend your knee without moving your hip. Bring your heel to your glute and you should feel a contraction in the back of your thigh. Slowly release your heel to the ground and repeat again.

Duration: Repeat for 8 repetitions on each side.
