    Today I'm going to talk about the benefits of Nordic curls, what are the reasons to do Nordic curls and also do a review on the iron soul equipment Nordic strap that allows you to do Nordic curls at home or when you travel.
    Nordic curls are a bodyweight leg curl or a calisthenics hamstring curl or calisthenics hamstring exercise. So with that now you don't have to go to the gym and use the hamstring curl machine but can now use your bodyweight for resistance and do it at home. For any of you that are calisthenics only this will be a fantastic exercise to add to your training or calisthenics leg workout

    Nordic curls are great for building strength and muscle in the hamstrings, have been shown to reduce injury and also increase performance in sprinting, running and jumping. Plus with bigger stronger hamstrings your leg exercises are also bound to improve too.

      @@LeeDowningKeat hey I notice with us who do them on doors your ankles are forced into a dorsiflexed position and laying flat against the door like you can push-up on them does that affect the effectiveness of the exercise at all? I feel my calves activating

    Is there more of an injury risk doing hamstring curls with a dumbbell than with these nordics? Besides that i think with nordics you can progress much further, because a dumbbell is going to get too heavy at some point, so that you can´t hold it anymore, squeezing your feet together, which would limit progress then for sure.

      I’m not sure tbh I’ve never done them with dumbbells, I’ve done the standing and lying down and seated on a Machine and found the standing wasn’t that good and the lying down the best. I wonder if it’s the eccentric in the nordics that work so well and how you can use your glutes too

      Are you wearing shoes? Perhaps stack an extra pad or pillow to get more tension.

      @LeeDowningKeat  7 месяцев назад

      In the video I was stated the benefits of nordic curls, this wasn't a workout guide to them. The purpose of the video was to highlight the benefits of an exercise than many people don't do on a muscle that is often neglected. Atm I do nordics on a ghd at a gym and have been adding them in like any other exercise 2x a week for 3 sets. Doing sets of 10 atm but are not full nordics and I need to build up to the full one myself

      Apologies mate, we're trying to sort out US shipping as we speak. But until we can bring the price down, I just don't feel comfortable charging customers $30+ for shipping.

      If you were inteligent a bit you would do it yourself diy one in 10 minutes.
      String piece of rope and piece of wood. Don't have at home. Go to wood and cut a slice from broken one.
