Leg Press

1. Sit on a leg press machine with your feet shoulder width apart on the platform.
2. Unlock the machine and get a comfortable stance
3. Bend your knees in toward your chest to bring the platform down.
4. Push out of your heels to straighten your legs and return to the starting position.
- Do not extend your legs fully and lock out your knees. This can be dangerous. We want to extend our legs, but always have tension on them.
- Push out of your heels to activate your glutes.
- Keep your butt down. Do not let it lift far off the seat.
- Keep your core engaged and do not hunch forward or arch your back.
- Keep your knees in line with your toes. They should be aiming straight up at the ceiling.
