Hip flexions, lateral leg raises, and repetitions of other exercises were done while standing upright behind the chair, holding the back of the chair for stability.

The exercises with the use of these ankle weights included seated knee flexion and extension and standing knee flexion and extension.

It is suggested that this works due to the ability of the exercise to increase the peak eccentric force of the hamstrings at shallower angles of knee flexion (the knee is more extended) vs. a leg curl which puts a premium on concentric force when the knee is in full flexion.

It is one of the best exercises you can do as a counter stretch for the many forward flexion exercises in Pilates mat work.

You perform plantar flexion when standing on your tippy - toes, pressing (or flooring) the gas pedal of a car, walking, and of course, when performing calf exercises.

Research shows that flexion exercises increased the risk of fractures by 89 % while extension exercises significantly lowered the risk of fractures to just 16 %.

A balanced workout would include a modest number of spinal flexion exercises and, then, only if you have a healthy back, as well as few rotation exercises to target the obliques.

On their own, most people compartmentalize exercise and don't see, for example, how the hip flexion with neutral spine they develop in a deadlift is the same method they should use to pick up a heavy box or bag of dog food.

Where exercises display peak hamstrings EMG amplitude at different degrees of knee flexion, this may imply that they could lead to increases in strength and hypertrophy in different parts of the hamstring muscles.

Myers et al. (2005) compared a number of different rehabilitation exercises performed with elastic tubing including internal and external rotation, rowing and combinations of shoulder flexion, adduction and extension.

While the bench press produces superior muscle activity compared to the shoulder press despite similar elbow flexion ranges of motion, it appears the load lifted is also greater, thus indicating that greater loads produce superior triceps muscle activity during compound exercises with similar elbow joint range of motion.

Exploring multiple sets of the Nordic hamstring curl exercise, Marshall et al. (2015) noted that a single set of 5 repetitions led to substantial reductions in peak eccentric knee flexion moments during the exercise, with even further reductions in subsequent sets, implying that performing the Nordic hamstring curl prior to practice or other exercise might not be advisable.
