Angry hamstring tendon?😡 Give these isometric exercises a go!

For irritable tendons, isometric exercises can be useful to reduce pain.

Some options here include:
🔹Prone hamstring curl
🔸Supine isometrics
🔹Standing heel drive
🔸Bench bridge isometric
🔹30-degree bridge isometric (double leg or single leg)
🔸Glute ham raise holds
🔹Nordic curl holds

🙋🏼‍♀️Which one to chose? Quite simply the one that feels best for you, and relieves your pain the greatest!

🙋Sets & reps? Aim to hold for 30-45 seconds, pushing around 70% of your maximal effort for this duration. Repeat 3-5 times with 1 min rest in between each effort. These can be done as a warm-up before exercise to help reduce the initial pain.
