Back of the Leg I
BALLET BODY TRAINING SYSTEM I
•
13m
Work the back of the legs with exercises that properly sculpt the hamstrings with alternating (lengthening) eccentric and (shortening) concentric contractions at the barre. This segment also utilizes the stretch-reflex in the flat back lunge position to activate the hamstrings while ballet-inspired moves target the back of the legs by lengthening and contracting the muscles simultaneously.
