Movement instructions
Secure a band close to the ground and place a bench a couple feet away from it.
Seat yourself on the bench and secure the band behind your ankles, beginning with your legs straight. This will be your starting position.
Flex the knees, bringing your feet towards the bench. You may need to lean back slightly to keep your feet from striking the floor.
Pause at the completion of the movement, and then slowly return to the starting position.

Your progress
Keep the same other setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Seated Band Hamstring Curl sessions.
Repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 10, 9 and 8 completed reps. Keep each set separate instead of recording only the total.
Compare repetitions using the same variation and range. A different variation needs its own history; extra reps are not directly comparable if the movement changes.
