| What to do: | Leg extension machines may vary from gym to gym. Adjust the machine so that when you sit down the pivot hinge of the machine is right where your knees are. Most leg extension machines have handles and some actually have a seat belt. Sit down, grab on to the handles and put your legs behind the arm of the machine at about the lower chins as shown in the start position. Extend your legs until they are completely straight. Hold that straight position for a beat and bring the weights back down. Repeat. |
||||
| Don't Forget to: | Don't go so fast that on the way down your just relaxing your legs and letting the weight fall back down. You will find that you will get more out of the exercise by using a lighter weight and going slowly to make sure you have tension in the muscles the entire time than you would going fast with a heavier weight. | ||||
| Equipment needed: | Leg extension machine. | ||||
