Glute Ham Raises - finally, a use for a Bosu ball!

These are harder than GHRs on a proper station, but not quite as hard as natural GHRs off the floor. I push off slightly at the bottom of the lift on these, and lower under control. Here, I have my feet tucked under a standing hamstring curl station, but I usually use the seated leg extension pad. If you use the leg extension, set the pin at the heaviest setting and stack a few plates on the seat (or get a friend to sit on it) to stabilize the machine.

Hey BuiltBuilt, is this less stressful on the knees than say, natural or lat pulldown GHR?

[BuiltBuilt]

@dhilbert83 Yes. Not as comfortable as an actual GHR bench, but better than any alternatives I've tried.

Every gym has a GHR - they just don't all know it. :)

Nice tip, I use it! I can do do GHR on the floor but at some point the preassure on the knees is just to much for me... So I have to back up again!
