The assisted nordic hamstring curl (2015)
Journal Article
Matthews, M., Jones, P., Cohen, D., & Matthews, H. (2015). The assisted nordic hamstring curl. Strength and Conditioning Journal, 37(1), 84-87. https://doi.org/10.1519/SSC.0000000000000084

Assisted nordic hamstring curls provide a mechanism for assisting the lower phases of a nordic hamstring curl, allowing training at increased hamstring muscle length positions and the performance of more repetitions. This exercise may be useful to ta... Read More about The assisted nordic hamstring curl.
