Slant Board Guy Nordic Hamstring Curl Strap

Product Information

For the most part, I’m not in love with this approach as it seems like more of a hamstring ‘activation’ exercise rather than a strengthening exercise. Although it is possible to do Nordics at home with no equipment (as we’ll discuss towards the end of this article), having some basic equipment is going to make this exercise 100 times more effective and convenient. If you’re brand new to Nordics, you’re going to have to do some regression work with a limited range of motion until you’re strong enough to do full Nordics. INCREASE STRENGTH AND EXPLOSIVENESS: The Nordic Strap is an inexpensive way to add Nordic curls to your workout regime. Nordic Curls are a great exercise to add power and explosiveness and reduce your chances of injury and strains in the hamstrings. The Nordic Strap can be also used for single leg Tibialis Raises and stretching exercises.

I’m also constantly on the hunt for new Nordic benches that can offer value to the marketplace for inclusion in this article. As the poles are planted at an angle, another key feature of a Nordic walking pole will be a removable rubber ‘paw’ for use on hard surfaces which is also angled to accommodate this action – see here for Nordic Walking paws The idea here is to dig your toes into the wall and focus on activating your hamstrings as much as possible before you fall to the mat. As Nordic Walking poles effectively ‘extend the arms’ to enable the walker to use ‘all fours’ it is vitally important that they are the correct length. If a four legged animal had front legs that were too long or short it would affect their ability to move well and it’s the same for Nordic walkers too. Whilst fixed length poles are usually a cheaper option and much is written about how they vibrate less, we do not advise a beginner to choose them as most people need to adjust the poles after a few weeks of Nordic Walking. This is because their range of movement and posture improves. Fixed length poles also only come in increments of 5 cms and it is not uncommon to see how an adjustment of 1 – 2 cms can make a difference to a walkers comfort and performance. At NWUK we always advise adjustable poles unless you are CERTAIN that the length is correct for you. This is because you don’t need to add boxes/plates to act as chest support (as you do with FAE Nordic Mini bench).

Wall Nordic Hamstring CurlSIMPLE SETUP: From beginner to advanced, the adjustable hamstring curl strap can be used by anyone. The strap adjusts to your shoe size for optimum performance. The belt strap slips under your door and connects to work like a weight, keeping your feet securely placed on the floor. It is not essential to buy expensive carbon poles but having at least a carbon bottom section of the shaft will provide a comfortable and solid feel as the poles connect with the ground. I’ve also been told the forthcoming version of this Nordic bench will have a pole attachment at the rear which will allow you to do band assisted Nordics, making regressions even easier!
