FEATURED WORKOUT: HAMSTRING ROLL-INS

To properly execute this movement, an exercise ball is necessary.

Lie down on the floor and place both heels on the exercise ball.
Lift the hips up so that your body is in a straight line from head to toes.
Press the heels into the ball to roll the ball in, contracting the hamstrings. Keep the feet flexed.
Roll the ball back out, keeping the hips lifted.
Repeat for 1-3 sets of 8-16 repetitions. For a modification; lower the hips to the floor after rolling the ball out to decrease the intensity.
