Hamstring Prehab Exercises

October 1, 2012 By Gregor Winter

Joe DeFranco has 2 hamstring prehab exercises to share.

Upright Sled Walks

  • dragging a sled with a vertical posture will hit the hamstrings better than dragging with a forward lean
  • strike the ground with entire foot, think “pulling the ground back” (fully extending) with every step

Eccentric Furniture Slider Leg Curls

  • you get greater glute involvement as opposed to a leg curl machine
  • plus you can do these at home

Also Ross Enamait has a good unilateral option with his Hamstring sled.
