Hamstring Training

​Improve your hamstring training in the gym with 2 small tips

1 DON'T BE AFRAID TO GO HEAVY
Hamstrings are typically a muscle that will fatigue quickly and more suited to
heavy, powerful training. When performing hamstring exercises, don’t be
afraid to keep your reps lower and the weight high.

​
2 HIT THEM FROM BOTH ANGLES
Whilst leg curls are great for hamstrings it is also important to remember that
they are also involved in movement at the hip joint. Incorporate movements
such as straight or stiff leg deadlifts to ensure you’ll hit your hamstrings from
both angles and train them even more effectively.
