Description

  • Grip handles tightly, face away from the machine and place cable between your legs.
  • Stand with good posture and feet shoulder width apart.
  • Begin movement by flexing your knees, leaning forward at your waist with neutral spine, allowing the cable to pull your arms between your legs.
  • As soon as you feel a stretch on your hamstrings, extend your knees and hips, and finish by pulling the cable through your legs.
  • Repeat movement.

ProTip

  • Keep your spine in neutral alignment as you lean forward.

Mistakes
