Natural Glute Ham Raise

Body only Hamstrings

The Natural Glute Ham Raise is a strength movement that targets your hamstrings. Here's how to do it with clean form.

How to do the Natural Glute Ham Raise

  1. Kneel upright with feet anchored under a stable object and hips fully extended.
  2. Lower your torso toward the floor slowly, resisting entirely with your hamstrings.
  3. Catch yourself with your hands at the bottom if needed, then curl back up using the hamstrings.
  4. Keep your hips extended and body in a straight line — don't break at the hips.
