LEG CURLS

PURPOSE OF EXERCISE: To develop the
hamstrings (rear of thigh).
EXECUTION: (1) Lie facedown on a Leg
Curl machine and hook your heels under
the lever mechanism. Your legs should
be stretched out straight. (2) Keeping flat
on the bench, curl your legs up as far as
possible, until the leg biceps are fully
contracted. Release and lower the
weight slowly back to the starting
position. Hold on to the handles or the
bench itself to keep yourself from lifting
up off the bench. This exercise should be
done strictly and through the fullest
range of motion possible. I have found
that supporting myself on my elbows
helps keep the lower part of my body
more firmly on the bench.
