What if i too weak to do this or dont have this apparatus?? Will nordic ham curl be a good alternative?

Very well explained with terrific detail. I do want to share my thoughts on programming. I say once the client is able to perform enough quality reps and or moment arm progressions to warrant adding weight, I would consider programming it as the first exercise of the day(or one of), being that it is a neurally demanding exercise at that point, requiring the use of some large musculature(glutes, lat, Ham) and not to mention the eccentric loading at that point and the high rate of force production required. This is assuming you were looking for another highly stimulating exercise outside of deadlift or similar variation to start with for that block of the program. Please share your thoughts, I am happy to challenge my views.

We just tend to use it as an accessory / assistance exercise because we prioritize the squat & deadlift. Could be a person who doesn't really care about those so much who would rather prioritize this movement.

came across this exercise back in the 90's. from what I read, track runners have been doing this exercise, long before I read about it. the article called it the GHG raise, glute/ham/gastroc, and claimed it was the only exercise that contracts the hamstring at both the hip and knee joints, at the same time. the article was in a magazine called "Sports Fitness", that was published by Joe Weider of "Muscle Builder" fame...the article was titled, "How not to pull a Hamstring".

I saw a picture of Kathy Hammond doing the nordic leg curl with her coach holding her ankles down in about 1972 in a track and field article. Hammond was a 51.0 400 meter runner in early 70's. I couldn't grasp trying it then. I can do them now, but can't coach it. To me it's about pressing my toes against the platform as hard as I can and "pulling" back. Louie Simmons of WSBB says the ghr bench was developed in Russia as an aid to Valery Borzov. The '72 Olympic 100 and 200 mtr champion.

I just want to know will it help with elimination of Charley horse ?

@@VishalRaoOnKZread Pretty much, but Nordic curls are done without the machine, so it's basically having the GHD adjusted to be as hard as possible - the foot plate all the way up above the pad and as far forward as possible.

The way she places her knees makes it more glute focused. If the knees are below the pad. If the knees are just lower pad(not below) you’ll see the difference and the hammies are totally engaged

For me at i think the closest alt is . . . Body weight good mornings. Emphases on elongating the hamstings, maintaining a neutral back. Then repit until ur gluetes and hams are on fire. I'm starting to do single legs. Then immediately following i will put my but against the wall, bent over like at the bottom of a good morninng. Holding the muscles from the hips down ridgid. Then elongate the back muscles (like touching ur toes). Then contract ur back. bringing ur shoulders back, chest up, head up. Just repp for the burn. Do pauses etc. Adding weight if wanted. By bar or weoght to chest. If u place one foot on a block it will add more emphasiss on that side. Which i think has beeen great help for my sciatica and waking up that erector before deads or squats.

It definitely can't replace the deadlift. A good morning is fairly similar to this as it falls into "hip hinge" but the deadlift uses so much muscle mass & lifts so much weights it's in a class of it's own a bit. Those other ones are more accessory lifts.

I'm having trouble getting up at the knees, is there a modification I can use to help myself up through that last bit?

To my eye the hamstring doesnt become any longer after being parallel to floor? So why go any further?

@kevinw1612

3 жыл бұрын

The hamstring attaches around the glutes so its put them into a stretch. Unless you're very lean its hardly perceivable. Think of it as, when you stretch your hammies you fold your torso to your knees bending over, stretching out that hammie. Imagine the girl is standing on the floor rather than using the machine all shes doing in bending over and putting tension and extension on the hamstrings, due to where it connects.

We'd recommend getting your deadlift stronger by just adding weight for awhile, and then these lifts can be added in to increase stress.

Novices benefit most from squatting and deadlifting. We want them to devote all of their recovery resources to increasing strength AND hypertrophy with these lifts. The GHR isn't a useful driver of improvement as long as the squat and dead are still increasing nicely.

4:17- completely incorrect to have toes pointed out.. taking load off the hamstrings (target muscle) and shifting to the calves. Can easily feel the difference. Feet need to be flat on the plate is simple cue, drive through HAMSTRINGS. Should edit this video, just teaching poor form.

This done wrong on so many accounts. Should stay like a pencil not curl all the way down. Also hips straight line, not curling back
