Seated Leg Curl
Seated Leg Curl Technique - This is a great finishing exercise for the hamstrings. Set the machine up properly with your butt & back right up against the back of the machine, this may take a couple of adjustments of either the back section of the apparatus, or the seat, but it's important to get it right. Squeeze the weight down for a full contraction in the hamstring, & bring it up in a controlled manner for a stretch. This exercise offers a great stretch movement because it has a 90 degree angle at the hips. So when the legs are straight, you get an effective stretch in the hamstrings. Don'ts: Avoid rocking the body with the movement, swinging with the upper body, or use a shortened range of movement. Keep the weight under controll at all times for maximum effect.
