NordStick Nordic Hamstring Curl Strap - Original Nord Stick Exercise Set for Home and Travel - 5 Second Set Up

I am a runner that has recently had hamstring problems, and wanted to add some hamstring strengthening into my routine. This device works very well and does not take up much space, so well worth having. It does take some time and effort to develop the strength to do a true nordic curl, but you can put some of your weight on your hands as you go up and down while using this. In time I will know if this helps my running, but I am going to give this a try.

This is a great purchase. Not much to say about this. Good quality, it's lasted this long and doesn't show much wear and tear. It works well and is a good price point to be able to do Nordic at home. Make sure you have some support for your knees.

Don't buy this full price. If you can pick it up for a steep discount, though, it's a great little workout tool.I am an aerialist and after watching a friend tear her hammy in a routine I decided to try some dedicated exercises to strengthen my hamstrings and hopefully prevent any of my own injuries. I've only been using this for about a week and the Nordic curl is *hard* but it feels great.The nordstick is comfortable, but I'm a smidge disappointed in the quality. I got it for a steep discount and it's definitely worth the price I paid... But not much more than that. It comes apart easier than I anticipated, and if one of the little endcaps comes off it can be pretty difficult to get back on properly because they don't have any holes for air to escape, so you're just trapping air inside the metal tube core. It's also a little difficult to adjust and the stitching isn't terribly clean, leaving me slightly worried about its longevity. Aside from that, though, it does its job well so far and the foam padding over the steel core seems like pretty good construction, so I only knocked a single star off.

It is easy to use and well comfortable

Nordic curls are one of my new favorite exercises. In lieu of getting a full metal setup at home or continuing to jam my feet under my couch, I decided to try the NordStick.Pros:+ I can do Nordic curls on it+ PortableCons:- Even at its shortest adjustment, it doesn't quite accommodate for my small feet (M7.5) I have to lift my heel further and press my toes to the door (as they cannot touch the floor) to get enough friction to make this work.- It tore my door (see pictures). You might consider placing tape, a towel, or something to buffer the friction of the rough strap against the door.For at-home, I'm sticking to jamming my feet under my couch until I make some adjustments.

Works well, I put a yoga mat under my knees for comfort and it's very nice to use. Had held up to over a year of use.I recommend this for a home setup as a good option to work the hamstrings

I purchased this after watching the knees over toes guy on youtube. This is a very well made, simple to use piece of equipment. It did take some time getting the strap adjusted but once that was done it works very well. This exercise is tougher than it looks so you may want to use something like a TRX or even a broom stick to help guide yourself down to your strength level. I have been doing these exercises once per week since I received it and am making progress but it is still not an easy move and my hamstring let me know they are getting work, HARD.The only thing I would like to see better is a different piece to pull against the door. Not that the one supplied is ineffective it just binds up against the door and can be a pain to slide along it. Really that is a minor complaint.

I was skeptical because there weren’t many ratings of this product or seller. But, directly from the packaging, I knew that it was quality. The simple design makes it easy to use and set up. I use it to perform sit-ups, nordic curls, and Sisyphus “Sissy” Squats. The pads are dense but soft for added comfort, the strap is very thick nylon material, and the strap anchors securely into the hard rubber anchor. I’m happy with the material quality and the performance of this piece.

I purchased this product thinking I would receive the norstick, however it is a different low budget alternative. The anchor piece is made of foam and not rubber.

Does exactly what it’s supposed to! Love it!

The best equipment when you can't go to gym

The product received was not a Nordstick. It had a plastic anchor and a black strap with a plastic clip, that broke the first time trying it out..Very disappointing.
