Hamstring Curl



Targets: Legs and core

If you’re searching for a way to torch your hamstrings and glutes, look no further. The TRX Hamstring Curl puts an intense strain on the entire backside — not just the hammies. After mastering the starting version, try going single-leg for an intense challenge!

How to: Place a mat underneath the TRX straps and lie on it facing up with your feet aligned with the pivot point. Place each heel inside a TRX strap and lie with your legs straight. Press down with your feet into the straps and lift your hips off the ground so that there is a straight line from your head to your heels. This is the starting position. Press down with your heels and curl the straps in towards your body as you lift your hips. At the top of the motion, your knees should form a 90-degree angle, and there should be a straight line from your knees to your head. Slowly lower to the starting position and repeat.
