Jeff,
Thanks for the hamstring video! 3 Questions:
1. With the exception of the exercise with the Ball, can I use progressively heavier weights with the other hamstring exercises you demonstrated.
2. I've got skinny legs that I'm trying to put some size on, are these exercises more of a injury prevention or do they put size on your hamstrings?
3. Is it still a good idea to do deadlifts for hamstring development? Is that something you'd recommend also?
Thanks.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Your advice on how to strengthen the hamstring makes so much sense! Years of running I never had an injury like the one I'm experiencing now. Not only is my hamstring messed up but now it has gradually affected my IT band. I feel like up until I saw your video that I was approaching my rehab totally wrong. I just started back to the gym after a solid month off and will definitely incorporate these moves.

thats another brilliant vid jeff, thanks.
im always very careful with leg training because for some odd reason i always feel like the muscles in my legs (calfs and hamstrings in especially) are never far away from cramping up or pulling, this is a after stretching too. I also get nasty cramps in my calfs through the middle of the night. Its a strange one, just means im a bit more careful about over-doing it

Yes, a very good exercise video! I gave you a thumbs up. However, although I cannot call myself a bodybuilder, I can call myself a fitness enthusiast who uses bodybuilding-style exercise routines. Therefore, as a use weight training exercise; mostly dumbbells, cables, and machines, I am interested in weight training exercises. Furthermore, not every gym has these rubber band things.

-thekernstable Hey Kerry. it depends on how long has it been injured and what your limitations are. If it's been a week or so, then start with stretching and see how it feels. Then I'd start integrating some -indirect- hamstring work like lunges and bodyweight squats to see how it's tolerated. Progress to this type of workout slowly while still continuing your stretch.

Thank you for this video. I'm a track coach and today I was running and thought to myself that the runners naturally do things that exercise the quads and calves and the hamstrings, in many cases, are neglected. So, it was my aim to find plyometrics or some sort of exercises to strengthen the hamstrings. Thank you.

-JDCav24 Hey Jeff. I travel a lot and spend a lot of time at Motel 6s and such where even a pullup bar is not available. Would you ever consider putting out an entirely equipment-free program? With nothing but bodyweight exercises? -
Or would that lessen the effectiveness of your system too much?

-2910johnny With all due respect Johnny. glute ham raises are anything BUT a single joint exercise. There are huge amounts of activation across the hip, knee and ankle joints and trains each one through it's decelerative ranges. This is no mere reversal of an ineffective exercise.

I just pulled my hammy 2 days ago. It was miner strain #1. A former track runner and soccer player; as you may know, I've had my share hamstring strains. Thanks for these exercises. I will try them as soon as I completely heal. I'm pretty sure that it's because of my weak glutes.
