The inverse leg curl with bench pads is an exercise targeting the hamstrings, performed by kneeling and lowering your body towards the ground. This movement builds strength and stability in the posterior chain, particularly isolating the hamstrings without involving the lower back heavily.

How to do it

  1. Secure your feet under the foot pads and kneel on the padding.
  2. Keep your body straight from knees to head as you slowly lean forward.
  3. Control the descent using your hamstrings, and push yourself back to start.
