The Posterior Chain (Part 1) 

If like me you are not genetically gifted with good legs it’s a good idea to train your legs twice a week. Usually, we spend one session focusing more on the quads and the other more on the Hamstrings (you will work both but the emphasis will change ). However, for me, Thursdays are my “hinge”/posterior chain/hamstring day. So I focus on leg curls, Good Mornings, Deadlift Variations, RDLs, Extensions etc. Done right it’s a great exercise, done wrong it’s a trip to the chiropractor, so practice light and make steady progressions. Position and intention are everything!

In today's episode, we will be discussing what the posterior chain is, how we use it and why is it so important.
