Don\u2019t forget about your hips. Guys, this is probably more important than even your knees to warm up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I do this, I always perform better than when I don\u2019t do it,\u201d he adds.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4 id=\"lying-hamstring-curl\">Lying Hamstring Curl<\/h4>\n<p>His second exercise was the lying hamstring curl.
