Hamstring Curls On The Exercise Ball

Vegan Fitness for Vibrant Living!

An Excellent Exercise For Lovely Legs

Would you like to firm and tighten the backs of your legs, your butt, and strengthen your core all at the same time? Hamstring curls on the ball will do it for you!

Hamstrings, the big muscles in the backs of your legs, are important muscles to train if you want to avoid knee problems and have beautiful legs.

The only equipment you will need for this exercise is an exercise ball, aka, physio-ball, stability ball, and balance ball.

An exercise ball is a fantastic workout tool. There are hundreds of great exercises you can do with them. Exercise balls also add variety and fun to your workouts.

Hamstring Curls on the Exercise Ball will:

• Strengthen and tone your hamstrings

• Strengthen and tone your butt

• Strengthen your core

• Strengthen and tone your calves

• Make your legs look sexy!

How to do the exercise:

Lie on the floor, face up with your legs extended and your feet on top of the exercise ball.

If you extend your arms out to your sides like airplane wings you will make the exercise easier by creating more stability.

The closer your arms are to your body the less stable you become and the harder the exercise is.

With your feet on top of the ball, lift your hips into the air as high as you can.

Curl, or pull your heels toward your butt.

Extend your legs.

You can either drop your hips to the floor in between each curl or keep them up to increase the intensity.

Try for 10-20 repetitions.

Remember to breathe!

Take Away Tip: Make exercise a part of your daily life. All you have to do is a little bit every day for a lifetime of fantastic results.
