Lever Seated Leg Press
Equipment
Position your feet shoulder-width apart, adjust the safety bars if necessary, and then grasp the handles on either side of the seat.
Slowly push the footplate away from you by extending your legs, while keeping your feet flat on the footplate and ensuring your knees do not lock.
After reaching the full extension, slowly bend your knees and return the footplate to the starting position, ensuring the movement is controlled and smooth.
Repeat this process for the desired number of repetitions while maintaining proper form throughout the exercise.
Pro Tip
Controlled Movements: Don't rush through the exercise. Make sure to control the movement both when pushing and returning to the starting position. This will ensure that your muscles are engaged throughout the exercise, and it will also help to prevent injuries. Correct Foot Placement: Your feet should be hip-width apart on the platform. Avoid placing them too high or too low as this can put unnecessary pressure on your knees and lower back. Don't Lock Your Knees: When you push the platform, avoid fully extending your legs to the point where your knees lock out. This can lead to knee injury. Instead, keep a slight bend in your knees even at the top of the movement. Use Appropriate Weight: Start
