# Leg Curl

Trains: Hamstrings

Image: EGYM Leg Curl — strength machine for legs, trains hamstrings (https://fitsquare.nl/assets/egym-leg-curl-m-gEgeU6.png)

## What does this machine do?

The Leg Curl trains your hamstrings — the muscles at the back of your thighs. Strong hamstrings are crucial for a healthy balance between the front and back of your legs and reduce the risk of injury.

## Benefits

- Prevents imbalance between quadriceps and hamstrings
- Reduces the risk of hamstring injuries
- Improves the stability of your knee joint
- Important for sports performance and everyday mobility

## Muscles trained

Biceps femoris Semitendinosus Semimembranosus

## How does it work?

Scan your wristband and lie or sit down (depending on the machine). The machine sets everything automatically. Bend your legs by pulling your heels towards your glutes. The screen guides your tempo.

## Tips for the best execution

- 1 Avoid lifting your hips during the movement
- 2 Move slowly and in control, especially on the way back
- 3 Lightly engage your core for stability
