<strong><font size="3">IS THIS THE ANSWER TO ALL MY PRAYERS?  </font></p>
<p>Glute Ham Raises Discovered In <a href="http://gwnn.me/TurbulenceBodyweight">Craig Ballantyne&#8217;s Turbulence Training Manual</a> !!</strong><br />
<br /></br>
<p>Hey Everyone!!  Is it the end of the weekend already?  Man, they really do fly by, don&#8217;t they?  </p>
<p>Anyway, <strong>I&#8217;m still on the warpath to solve my Hamstring issues</strong> and have decided to get more serious about strengthening them (rather than stretching them).  </p>
<p><a href="http://gwnn.me/TurbulenceBodyweight"><img src="http://www.girlwithnoname.com/images/TT_sm.jpg" alt="Turbulence Training" align="right" style="border-style: none" /></a>Every expert has a differing opinion about what my problem is <em>(too tight, too weak, not stretched enough, out of balance, I&#8217;ve heard it all)</em> &#8230; </p>
<p>&#8230; and the more I sit at my computer feeling them getting more and more sore during the day as they get more and more stretched from sitting, the more I believe that <strong>WEAK, overstretched hamstrings is actually my issue</strong> (as opposed to them being too tight), therefore <strong>it&#8217;s time to give them some harder work to do</strong> &#8230; REGULARLY.  </p>
<p>So, after spending a bunch of time flipping through the many tomes I have here from many fitness experts, <strong>I happened upon this great exercise while flipping through Craig Ballantyne&#8217;s awesome <a href="http://gwnn.me/TurbulenceBodyweight">Turbulence Training bodyweight manuals</strong></a> that just might be the answer to all my problems!  </p>
<p>Check it out:<br />
<br /></br>
<p><center><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="545" height="451" id="viddler_889fdd35"><param name="movie" value="http://www.viddler.com/player/889fdd35/" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><embed src="http://www.viddler.com/player/889fdd35/" width="545" height="451" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="always" allowFullScreen="true" name="viddler_889fdd35"></embed></object></center><br />
<br /></br>
<p>And, as promised, here&#8217;s <strong>Craig Ballantyne himself demo&#8217;ing them for us</strong>:  </p>
<p><center><object width="545" height="451"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/44DAxF6bneY&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/44DAxF6bneY&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="545" height="451"></embed></object></center><br />
<br /></br>
<p>Plus, <strong>here&#8217;s another great demo by someone who really knows how to do them well</strong>:</p>
<p><center><object width="545" height="451"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/oa6Ai5ty6oY&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/oa6Ai5ty6oY&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="545" height="451"></embed></object></center><br />
<br /></br>
<p><strong>Craig has lots of great bonuses available right now, too! So head over there to see what he&#8217;s got on offer if you grab Turbulence Training today:</strong></p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://gwnn.me/TurbulenceBodyweight"><img style="border-style: none" src="http://www.girlwithnoname.com/images/TT_sm.jpg" alt="Turbulence Training eBook"></a></p align>
<p align="center"><font size="4"><a href="http://gwnn.me/TurbulenceBodyweight"><strong>Get Turbulence Training</strong></a></font></p align>
<br /></br>
<p>As always, let&#8217;s end it all on a musical note (haha, did I just make a pun?)!  </p>
<p>Here&#8217;s today&#8217;s <strong>Workout Song of the Day</strong>.  </p>
<p>Yes, I&#8217;ve tied it in with the subject of the post in my usual smarty-pants style.  With luck and a few strengthening exercises like these <strong>Glute Ham Raises</strong>, <em>hopefully my hamstring issues will be &#8230; (ready for it? &#8230;)  GONE DADDY GONE!!  LOL.</em>  </p>
<p>It&#8217;s also a great song for running because it has a great fast beat that drives my feet forward (and heck &#8230; it&#8217;s pretty good for strength-training too, seeing as it has that touch of angst going for it!)&#8230; </p>
<p>Enjoy:</p>
