This Is Why Your Hamstrings Are Weak

- I will show you how the glutes and calves take over in a lying leg curl, taking away the full benefit. Learn to lock the glutes down and isolate the hamstrings for better contractions.
This execution series is focused on building a proper understanding of how these muscles actually move so that we can control the movement and contract these muscles effectively.

I'm an ex elite powerlifter with multiple national records. This is a truly amazing video, can't believe i never figured that out
Glad to hear it helps 😊
I've been lifting for 42 years and just learned this last year from Mike O'Hearn. A couple simple adjustments like this make the hamstrings do the work......Good video here, brief and clear with good information
Elite powerlifter? 😁 LOL!!!
This video changed my life. For real.
Awesome Chris!
Thank you!
Thank you! No nonsense
great content
great video
thank you
My man needed a god slap to the peach for a job well done
Brilliant l. Subscribed immediately.
Liked and subscribed
Great video, as someone who trains mainly for size I’ve somehow still managed to build fairly decent hamstrings, but I always noticed lower back pain because I lift my hips up once the set gets hard. I’ll deffo try this next leg day
hopefully it helps!
I actually naturally do the form you recommended, that’s awesome, this is the way to feel it most in the strings
good stuff
If you want to train smarter not harder, go to www.themetaproject.co for more free resources to transform your body and energy.
You are right about that rising butt but calf muscle works the flexion of feet at ankle joint. Any contribution of calf muscle to knee flexion is minimal.
The gastroc joins over the knee and for the first 10-15 degrees of the range is quite involved actually
@@ollywoodbr You maybe right. When we do leg curls, calf do get tensed👍
Do them seated and keep your back tight. This video was dumb
Yeah thanks I couldn't stop my hips from raising
So go lighter in weight to a weight you can control
@@simeondutoit6545 that's what I was doing but when I get close to failure my hips would still come off the pad, but his advice really helps, I also get better hamstring activation with this method. Thanks for the help tho!
look at that women in the background using the wooden staff!
That's a normal dislocation that every healthy shoulder should do. Weightlifters(me) and gymnasts are doing it all the time. I can't say that for the machines, especially for the video you just saw. Stick to reverse nordic even if you can not do a single full repetition. 10000x times better for hamstrings actually proven time after time, not to mention injury prevention effect it has compared to this leg curl nonsense, which trains like the shortest range of posterior chain possible.
All this being said I dont critique the advice in the given video in any way!
@@markobegus Just a small correction. Nordics for the hamstring. A reverse nordic is a quad-dominant exercise also known as a natural leg extension.
So why aren't the machines made this way??
A machine that's made for everyone, is made for no one.
That's a great quote for some gym equipment tbh
ever and lumbar strain..... 🙄🤦♂️
so basicly a bad design of these machines
not necessarily, just need to focus on the muscle and how it actually works.
Lol so i did it wrong? Ahhh
Most do, hope this video helps understand how you can tweak it to move forward :)
