💥 The Nordic Hamstring curl is an excellent exercise in terms of ‘injury prevention’ for ACL tears, hamstring pathology, and other lower extremity injury in the active soccer player. However, have you ever tried one?! Spoiler alert: they’re really hard! . 🏋🏼‍♀️ Check out two modifications I use with my patients and clients to build up tolerance to this exercise while slowly progressing towards full body weight. Can you think of any other ways to modify this specific exercise? Comment below 👇🏼 . 1️⃣ Nordic Hamstring Curl 2️⃣ Swiss Ball Assisted Nordic Hamstring Curl 3️⃣ Band Assisted Nordic Hamstring Curl . ✅ Start by kneeling on a soft surface with your knees about hip-width apart ✅ Hook your heels under a bench OR have your partner kneel behind you with both hands gripped on your lower legs just above the ankles, pushing them down into ground ✅ Slowly lean forward while trying to hold the position with your hamstrings ✅ When you can no longer hold the position, gently take your weight on your hands, falling into a press-up position . ❌ Do not tilt your head backwards ❌ Do not bend at the hips . ⚪️ Beginners: 1 set of 3-5 repetitions 🔵 Intermediate: 1 set of 7-10 repetitions ⚫️ Advanced: 1 set of 12-15 repetitions . 🏷 TAG a teammate with tiny hamstrings 😂 . #just4kicksboston #anteriorcruciateligament #acl #aclrehab #aclprevention #injuryprevention #injuryreduction #returntosport #returntoplay #neuromusculartraining #strength #conditioning #performance #soccer @athleticevolution @ae__pt

More quality from @chicagosportsdoc 👍🏻 ・・・ Both menisci attach to the tibia through roots on the front and in the back. These are important because they hold the meniscus in place. Having a root tear is equivalent to having NO MENISCUS! . #sportsmedicine #meniscus #root #surgeon #knee #anatomy #PT #savethemeniscus #sports
