POSTERIOR STABILISING LINE
What it tests for
Looking at you, hamstrings and inner thighs. Those clutch muscles provide support and balance to the hips and back. ‘Strength and control here can potentially reduce pain and injury to the knees, lower back and hips,’ Fraboni says.
How to do it
(a) Sit with your knees parallel and bent between 60 and 90 degrees, your heels on the bench and your hips, elbows and forearms on the floor. Relax your neck and keep your ears aligned with your shoulders. Lift your left leg, keeping it bent.
(b) Raise your body by pressing down with your right heel, keeping your knees flexed. Raise your left leg a few inches so your entire body is supported by your right leg.
