  • Theres nothing wrong with that, your actualy getting more of a workout when he lowers slowly, extending the muscle and stretching it slowly in a workout is the best thing you can do, thats why this is such a great method of workout for your ham :P

  • Glute ham raises are seriously the hardest exercises ever lol.....I tried them today and I got cramps after just 5 reps

  • @chan33559 i think he's doing this because he's not strong enough not too :)

  • @MrBubbles70 You can put pillows under your knees.

  • FYI - If you dont have a steady surface you could really put some pressure on your knee cap being on the floor. I tried these a few times and their challenging, but dangerous if not done correctly or with the proper support.

  • i wonder if this would help if you put weights on your back

  • nice one, but when youre going up, ur relieving pressure off your hamstrings by pushing with your palm. but good job, keep it up

  • lie on the bench in a way your knees are just before the bench, not on it (quadriceps and the upper body is on the bench, put the dumbell between your feet, knees together, legs straight, and do curls.

    i think there's a video of it on youtube, great for those who don't have access to the curl machine

  • so what do you do instead then?

  • Looks painful and yet effective....is there something that can be done to protect the knees? Some adjustment?
