cable assisted inverse leg curl
To perform the cable assisted inverse leg curl, follow these steps:
1. Set up the cable machine by attaching an ankle cuff to the low pulley.
2. Stand facing the cable machine and securely fasten the ankle cuff around your lower leg, just above your ankle.
3. Take a step back from the machine to create tension in the cable.
4. Keep your torso upright and your core engaged. This will be your starting position.
5. Slowly bend your knee, pulling your heel towards your glutes against the resistance of the cable. Ensure that the movement is controlled and that your hips remain stationary.
6. Hold the peak contraction for a moment, then slowly return your leg to the starting position.
7. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.
8. Once you've completed your set, switch legs and repeat the exercise.
Remember to keep your movements slow and controlled to ensure you're effectively targeting your hamstrings. Adjust the weight as needed to suit your fitness level.
