Leg Curl, Exercise Ball

Type: Legs
Performing lower body exercises such as squats places a large emphasis on the buttocks and quads. In order to ensure a muscular balance between your quads and hamstrings then it's necessary to isolate the hamstrings whenever you work the legs. This exercise will isolate the hamstrings, work the lower back & core stabilizer muscles.
