Overview
The exercise ball leg curl is an exercise targeting the hamstrings. In particular, it targets the knee flexion function of the hamstrings, as opposed to deadlift variations, which target the other hamstring function, hip flexion. Many lifters opt for this exercise when they don't have access to a lying leg curl machine, but it is worth considering even if you already do machine curls.

Alternatives

These alternative exercises can be used as substitutes when the original exercise is unavailable or challenging to perform due to various reasons such as equipment limitations, injuries, or personal preferences.
