Day 27 of the 100 Reps Challenge
20 bent over dumbbell rows (20 for each side)
20 stability ball hamstring curls
Do this set 5 times for a total of 100 bent over dumbbell rows and 100 stability ball hamstring curls!
Fitness Tip: Don’t have a stability ball? Just do hamstring curls in a standing position, one leg at a time. Move quickly in a jumping motion to get the most out of this exercise if you are doing it without the stability ball. With the bent over dumbbell rows, lower the weights at the same slow speed in which you lifted them; you use slightly different muscles in raising and lowering the weights and you want to make sure that all of them are getting worked!
Hey Sagan,
Another alternative for the “hamstring curls” is to do them in your socks on a slippery floor surface. You can also use a Crazy Carpet (a thin sheet of plastic used for sledding – for those of you who live below the snow line…) with some Pledged wiped on it to make it more slippery.
Cheers,
Adam
Wow, that’s awesome. I don’t have a stability ball, and I thought I would be missing out!
Adam- thanks for that idea! Much appreciated.
Sharon- half the fun of exercising is trying to figure out variations:) Using your own bodyweight without any equipment gives fantastic results.
