How to Do Lying Leg Curls

  2. Lift the weight by bending your knees as far as possible.
  3. Slowly lower the weight again.

Commentary

The lying leg curl is an isolation exercise where it is easy to focus on the hamstrings.

Be careful when adjusting the machine so that it suits your body. The most important aspect is to place the machine’s joint in line with your knees.
