Master the Seated Jefferson Curl: Ultimate Hamstring & Back Stretch!
Discover My Books and Coaching:
Today, we dive into the Seated Jefferson Curl, a game-changer for your lower body flexibility. In this video, I’ll guide you through the correct performance of the seated variation, targeting your posterior chain muscles — calves, hamstrings, glutes, and adductors.
🏋️♂️ Technique Breakdown:
Start with a straight back, sitting on your hip bones.
Use weights for optimal effectiveness.
Execute dynamic reps for in-and-out movement or static reps for prolonged stretches.
Gradually progress from dynamic to static, adjusting knee bend for comfort.
Emphasize controlled breathing patterns for each variation.
🧘♀️ Yoga Blocks and Knee Bend:
If the stretch feels challenging, use yoga blocks under your feet or bend your knees. Progressively straighten your knees as you improve, ensuring a smooth and controlled breathing rhythm.
