Hamstring Lift

Position yourself on your hands and knees. Lower yourself
down to your elbows, making sure the elbows stay directly
under your shoulders.

Keep your back straight and your abs pulled in tight.
Keeping the knee bent, lift the foot toward the ceiling
until the thigh is parallel to the floor.

Squeeze the buttocks and be sure not to lift the thigh
higher than hip-level.

Lower the leg and repeat. Perform one set of reps, then
repeat with the opposite leg.

I have to exercise in the morning before my brain figures
out what I'm doing.

I do these as an activation exercise for squats and deadlifts.
