WOW!!! My Hamstrings have Never Felt like this Before --- 1st --- this Machine for the Money ? is Well Built and Sturdy --- took about 20 minutes and was simple to put together.2nd --- Now for the Workout and Getting Used to it --- YouTube gave me some very Good & Helpful Ideas on how to help to Safely Build up Strength ? in your Hammmies if you're a Newbie like me. This Excercise will Completely Change and Strengthen Your Hamstrings like Nothing Else.As you can see by my pictures --- I chose to use a Dip Belt across my Chest and Connect with Bands on my Back to Help with Both the Eccentric and Concentric Phases of the Nordic Hamstring Curl.Got the idea to use my Dumbell Drop Pads (to avoid the fear of face planting) from a YouTube Video showing a machine that you could change the elevation as you get stronger.There are Nicer and Larger But Pricier Machines but with my Limited Space and Budget the Lifepro Nordic Curl Hamstring Machine is Perfect ? for Me --- Two Thumbs Up ? ? --- Highly Recommend the Product and the Fast Shipping.*******Edit******* After a Couple of Weeks and Watching more Videos of more $$$ Expensive Nordic Machines, I've Ditched the Bands for Just Changing the Elevation of my Machine by using "Drop Pads" (see the 2 New Added Pictures)...Just Now!!! Started Using the Incline and the Stability of my Total Gym and the Padding of 1 Drop Pad ---- Really like This due to the Precise Degrees of Elevation/Slope from 26 Degrees to 6 Degees --- Comparable to the more $$$ Expensive Nordic Machines...By Doing this it has Really Added More Intensity to my Hamstrings without Sacrificing Safety --- Just Love this Nordic Hamstring Machine. ?
