Purpose: Strengthen the hamstrings muscles without having to move the knee. Starting Position: Sit in a chair with your heel against the leg of the chair and your feet firmly on the floor. Action: Press your heel firmly backwards into the chair leg feeling the back of your thigh tightening/clenching.
One of the best hamstring exercises. 1. Lie down in a bridge position on the floor, with your hips completely off the floor and legs resting on the exercise ball. 2. Balance your entire weight on your shoulders and spread your arms towards your sides.
