@nlottes1 lets just be clear, quadriceps are on the front and hamstrings are on the back of the thigh. Muscles don't push, they only pull. So for a heel hook, you are using your hamstrings.
@katlunazul, wburgboy75, cha1ny: If you're using the hamstring, you're not doing a heel hook, you're just sticking your leg up too high. You push with your quadriceps for a heel hook. You won't learn anything by assuming you're always right.

With your hand that way round on the dead rope it makes it harder to keep grip on the rope if she falls....

Pulling with your leg uses the hamstring, not the quadriceps.

A heel hook would actually utilise the Hamstrings, not the quadriceps.
