Targets: Glutes, Hamstring

About

It's a workout that requires a lot of strength in the back of your thighs and core. Try to maintain the tension when you move up and down.

How to Glute Ham Raise

Starting Position

1. Please adjust the machine so that the shin is perpendicular to the ground.

2. Place your knees on the pad and pull your ankles towards your body to maintain a vertical position.

Proper Form

1. Use the thigh and glute muscles to lower your upper body until it is parallel to the floor.

2. Keep your core tightly engaged and raise your upper body back up.

Breathing Technique

Breathe in while going down, and breathe out while going up.

Precautions

1. Keep your chest up and engage your core to avoid bending your waist.

2. If your core strength is insufficient, do not push yourself to continue exercising.
