Rosehip Jun 2015 9:15am, 4 Jun 2015 5,094 posts	Quote Pin Rosehip I started the Runtastic SixPack app this morning - will add a plank on at the end on days there isn't one. It's not much, but enough to keep in the routine

HappyG(rrr) Jun 2015 1:13pm, 4 Jun 2015 24,653 posts	Quote Pin HappyG(rrr) They always say that core is the only thing you can do every day, whereas legs, shoulders, arms etc you need one day off in between. We do the leg driver things and various other core in Pilates class. It's all good. So I prob do most of this about 3 or poss even 4 times per week already. Right, I won't try and do daily plank (phew! glad I talked myself out of that!) G

aradesh Jun 2015 9:04pm, 5 Jun 2015 13 posts	Quote Pin aradesh I could probably do with doing some hamstring strengthening. I get a sore tendon behind/to the right of my right knee when cycling any distance. Any idea of exercises I can do without gym equipment?

aradesh Jun 2015 3:34pm, 6 Jun 2015 17 posts	Quote Pin aradesh That's a good vid maT.T. Do you find them as good as the guy says? Like, he was saying after first trying one of them he couldn't walk properly for 4 days
maT.T. Jun 2015 6:14pm, 6 Jun 2015 8,368 posts	Quote Pin maT.T. I'm on phone at the moment. Is there not lots of such links over there >>>>> Reps? I'd go with however you are doing that day. No need to do 4 different hamstring exercises in one session. Just pick one and do 3 sets of up to 15 depending how you feel. Just do as part of your strength routine. Couldn't walk properly for 4 days? He is either a big bessie or has something to sell
