About

Use a strap to work your hamstrings and glutes at the same time

How to TRX Hamstring Curl

Starting Position

1. Lie on your back and place your heels in the TRX straps.

2. With your knees slightly bent, lift your hips to create a bridge position.

Proper Form

1. Maintain the position with your hips lifted while bending your knees and pulling your feet towards your hips.

2. Hold for a moment while feeling the contraction in your hamstrings.

3. Straighten your legs and slowly return to the starting position.

4. Repeat while ensuring your hips do not drop.

Breathing Technique

Exhale while pulling your foot, and inhale while stretching your leg.

Precautions

1. Engage your abdominal and glute muscles to keep your back straight.

2. If you lack strength, it's okay to lower your hips slightly while proceeding.
