Unexpected Growth: Embrace Novelty in Training
Focusing on deep squat depth can yield surprising benefits, particularly in hamstring development, even when this wasn't the primary goal. Engaging in 'ass to grass' squats with heavier loads not only enhances mobility but also inadvertently fosters hamstring growth. While incorporating advanced exercises like Nordic curls can be beneficial, foundational movements such as deadlifts, stiff legged deadlifts, and good mornings should remain central to training routines. Exploring new techniques can lead to unexpected gains, emphasizing the importance of variation in strength training.
