A conveniently placed Keiser made for some impromptu innovation and relief for my hamstrings on these Eccentric Only Nordics.

Like most people I can’t maintain my spine and pelvic positioning doing traditional Nordics and GHRs but adding in the @keiserfitness and @whatsthatstrap seems to help me maintain my posture and keep my hamstrings from tearing in half. For those wondering I had 15 lbs of assistance on the Keiser.

Disclaimer: I would highly recommend mastering the following progression prior to moving onto Nordics. Practicing drills Nordics with poor positioning likely will do more to contribute to a hamstring injury than prevent one.
