Overview

The wide stance stiff legs exercise is a hamstring isolation exercise that can be performed with a barbell or dumbbells. To perform the exercise, start by standing with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart and your toes turned out slightly. Hold a barbell or dumbbells in front of your thighs with your arms extended. Bend your knees and lower your body until your thighs are parallel to the floor, keeping your back straight and your core engaged. Pause at the bottom of the movement, then extend your legs back to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, This exercise is a great way to target the hamstrings and build strength and size in this muscle group. It can also help to improve flexibility and range of motion in your hips. However, it is important to note that this exercise can be challenging, so it is important to start with a light weight and gradually increase the weight as you get stronger.
