Hi team,
Reading about Pavel's SF Resilience programme. It reminded me about my brief experimentation with Jefferson curls.
Often I'll look at an exercise or movement and think, "That's a great idea!" JC was one.
I tried it once a week, two weeks in a row with 2kg, doing 10 slow reps. I have pretty good mobility and flexibility already.
The day after I had the worst soreness through my hamstrings I've ever had. I'd rate it worse than DOMS. Perhaps it was even a nerve stretch?
It was enough to put me off ever doing it again but alas my stupidity wants to see if there is a benefit I'm yet to discover
So it brings me to many questions:
# For whom is the JC?
# What criteria would warrant it's use?
# Even with good spinal health are there any reasons where the JC is unnecessary or contraindicated?
What does severe soreness in the back of the legs indicate?
Thank you for any constructive feedback
