How to perform it
- Begin on the floor laying on your back with your feet on top of the ball.
- Position the ball so that when your legs are extended your ankles are on top of the ball. This will be your starting position.
- Raise your hips off of the ground, keeping your weight on the shoulder blades and your feet.
- Flex the knees, pulling the ball as close to you as you can, contracting the hamstrings.
- After a brief pause, return to the starting position.
Muscles worked
The Ball Leg Curl primarily targets your Hamstrings, with support from your Calves, Glutes. You'll need exercise ball.
Make it count toward your goal
Random sets rarely move the needle. In NYUS, the Ball Leg Curl slots into a plan built for your goal — sets and reps set in the plan, logged in two taps, and folded into a weekly check-in that adjusts your calories, macros and step goal.
