How to do it

  1. 01

    Secure a band close to the ground and place a bench a couple feet away from it.

  2. 02

    Seat yourself on the bench and secure the band behind your ankles, beginning with your legs straight. This will be your starting position.

  3. 03

    Flex the knees, bringing your feet towards the bench. You may need to lean back slightly to keep your feet from striking the floor.

  4. 04

    Pause at the completion of the movement, and then slowly return to the starting position.

In the app

Seated Band Hamstring Curl 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.
