      Just do it on a hyperextension. There's usually one at every gym. It's easier at the incline but then you can simply hold a weight

    Nordic curls are the key to the hamstrings. The key to the quads are sissy squats using the sissy squat bench. Extremely tough exercise especially if you lean back during the eccentric phase.

  • @killerpro6982
    @killerpro6982 2 місяці тому +4

    Actually squats(both lateral and unilateral) do nothing for the hamstrings . For targetting the hamstrings at home besides of nordic curls , one can do single leg rdls . The difficulty can be adjusted according to the individual's fitness level by holding on to a nearby object for support or using a split stance . Once strong enough , one can lift the other leg off the floor the perform the exercise or can even hold on to weights for increased reaistance.

    I'm sorry, I can't guarantee those nordic curls yet. I still gotta find an affordable standalone pull-up bar that can adjust for the incline rows AND support a 350 lb big back who's trying to get his life together. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
    Idk if I got the budget _nor_ the prerequisite abilities for the nordic curl equipment yet. Odin gotta bear with me for a little while. 😂😂😂😂😂
