The suspension trainer hamstring curl is a highly effective exercise for targeting the hamstring muscles.

By using the suspension trainer, you can engage the hamstrings in a controlled and challenging manner.

The workout involves lying on your back and placing your feet in the suspension trainer handles.

As you lift your hips off the ground and curl your legs towards your glutes, the hamstrings are activated.

Attach the suspension trainer securely to a stable anchor point.
Stand facing the anchor point with your feet hip-width apart.
Hold the handles of the suspension trainer with an overhand grip.
Lean forward, keeping your back straight and your core engaged.
Extend your legs straight in front of you, lifting your heels off the ground.
Bend your knees and pull your heels towards your glutes, using your hamstrings.
Pause for a moment, then slowly straighten your legs to return to the starting position.

Position yourself facing the anchor point, lying on your back with your heels in the foot cradles of the suspension trainer.
Engage your core muscles by drawing your navel towards your spine, and press your lower back into the ground to maintain a stable and aligned body position.
With control, exhale as you bend your knees and curl your heels towards your glutes, focusing on squeezing your hamstrings at the top of the movement.
Avoid using momentum or swinging your legs; instead, maintain a slow and controlled pace throughout the exercise to fully engage your hamstrings and prevent strain on your lower back.
To increase the challenge, try extending your legs fully before initiating the next repetition, ensuring a full range of motion and maximizing the activation of your hamstrings.
