How to do it

  1. 01

    For this movement a wooden floor or similar is needed. Lay on your back with your legs extended. Place a gym towel or a light weight underneath your heel. This will be your starting position.

  2. 02

    Begin the movement by flexing the knee, keeping your other leg straight.

  3. 03

    Continue bringing the heel closer to you, sliding it on the floor.

  4. 04

    At full knee flexion, reverse the movement to return to the starting position.

In the app

Platform Hamstring Slides appears when you own the kit it needs and the day's window has room for it. Loads come from Rule 3 (Loads rise when earned, read from RPE, graded strong) and climb on the reps you actually did.

If a machine is taken the engine swaps a same-pattern movement and says why.

If you don't have the kit it needs

Same movement pattern, same primary muscles — swap by what you have.
