Instructions
Preparation
- Lie on bench with knees legs over pads. Align hip joints
with lever fulcrum. Strap hips down with belt. Extend both hips
with feet toward floor.
Execution
- Raise one knee by flexing hip. Return to original position
by extending hip. Repeat with opposite leg, alternating between
sides.
Comments
- Hamstring remains in active
insufficiency through movement since knee is significantly
flexed and hip does not flex beyond 90 degrees. Also see Lever Lying Hip Extension
on plate loaded machine.
