Target Muscle
Secondary Muscles
Equipment
Position one leg under the lever pad, with the pad resting just above your ankle; the other leg should be placed beside the machine.
Hold onto the side handles of the machine for support, keeping your torso flat against the backrest.
Slowly curl your leg up as far as possible, ensuring that the rest of your body remains stationary during this movement.
Gradually lower the lever pad back to the initial position, ensuring a controlled movement, then repeat the exercise with the other leg.
Pro Tip
Controlled Movement: When performing the exercise, make sure to move in a slow and controlled manner. Avoid the common mistake of using momentum to lift the weight. This not only reduces the effectiveness of the exercise but can also lead to injury. Full Range of Motion: Make sure to use a full range of motion during the exercise. This means extending your leg fully at the bottom of the movement and curling it up as far as comfortably possible at the top. Avoid the mistake of only partially extending or curling the leg, as this can limit the benefits of the exercise. Keep Your Upper Body Still: Another common mistake is to move the upper body while performing the exercise. This can shift the focus
