I also have the feet very very close to me just to make sure I put the hamstrings in active insufficiency (so the glutes have to do the work). Apparently that doesn't work very well for me. Maybe they are "too much active insufficiented"?

I said ON A GHR MACHINE. "natural" ghr is a shitty exercise imo for a lot of people.

pay special attention to what he says regarding starting the movement with the low abs.  a cue I have found useful to get some athletes to understand this is to do a knee raise against the pad to come up.

I have never seen a GHR machine in Romania in any gym I can think of. Neither a reverse hyperextension.

 I dont know if there is a company near you that sells training equipment, but a ghr bench is not a huge investment, especially if youre serious about training if there is a place you can order one from.
