Get More Hamstring Exercises:
Generally, when it comes to hamstring exercises you have to make sure you’re training the hamstrings the way they actually work when you’re on your feet! The hamstring exercises that do this are what I call “bulletproof hamstrings” exercises.
As the most commonly injured muscle group in the body, the hamstrings need workouts that address their ability to tie in with the glutes to produce powerful hip extension. Focusing only on hamstring curls is the worst thing you can do and is sure to lead to a pulled hamstring down the road.
AthLEAN-X develops the hamstrings the way they need to be developed to help you to not only excel on the field but also to produce impressive leg muscles and growth. If you’re tired of pulling your hamstrings and injuring yourself while doing other types of training it’s time you switch to AthLEAN-X and see how training like an athlete can get you to start looking like one!

Covid19 lock down. Home gym exercise. Thanks
Is this in AX-1? Too lazy to learn the stiff legged deadlift.
Commenting this from 9 years after this was uploaded.
Yeah let me just pull a medicine ball out my ass, no equipment
Who is here in 2021
Not good for the knees
Tyreek Hill does these reps to kill'em on the field on Sunday's
Please do something updated
Is there an alternative where I don't need a huge ball? 🙁
Worst thing is I got nowhere to put my feet like that in my place
Got it
starts at 0:40
After 9 years athlean x still the best
Hip flexors are being activated on this exercise (not the glutes); therefore not so practical for athletic running. Need both hip extensor (glutes) and ham acitivation–to simulate the foot motion for running i.e. back leg/foot pulls ground upon return to flexion and bending at the knee. In my opinion, of course.
2021 yeah bøi
can i do this exercise without gym ball??? (we don't have this ball in our gym))
what is this exercise called?
Jeff was knees over toes guy before he was even conceived
Watching this in 2021.
Wow coming here in 2021 is quite something
A long time ago I pulled a hamstring timing my 100 yard dash. Stupidly I did nothing special to recover and for years one hamstring was much tighter than the other. Then in my early 40s I started to work out again. I worked a lot to stretch my hamstrings, and I did things like good morning, straight leg deadlifts – low weight to start – to strengthen them, glutes, lower back. I think the strengthening was the key. Now I'm the most flexible I've been my whole life, hamstrings are fine, I do Romanian deadlift set with 75% body weight.
Is that Ross from Friends?
KNEESOVERTOES!!
This needs an update video jeff!
best way to get patellofemoral syndrome
Can anyone tell me what the song is that is playing at the intro of this video?? This sounds like it would be a great workout song
Oof. The pasty white hairy legs thing is way too real…
Just saw the knees over toes guy suggesting this exercise, and here Jeff is talking about this exercise a fuckin decade ago. You should revisit this exercise in a newer video!
Looks more like a belly curl alternative to me
You could do Nordic curls as well
Old but still good
Not a helpful video. Too much introduction, 10 seconds devoted to an actual exercise, and then a sales pitch.
Thank you.
Hamstrings extend your glutes, they don't bend your knees.
Yoga ball modified nordic hamstring exercise is a good exercise to train that.
Thank you Jeff!
I find this so hard. My calves cramp up on the way up. My hamstrings are soooo weak. damn!
