Instructions
Sit down on the leg press machine and place your back against the padded support. Place one foot on the platform and the other on the floor. Extend your knee of the leg up on the platform and release the lever to begin the exercise. Lower the platform by bending your knee until it is almost fully flexed. Return by extending your knee to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then repeat on the other side.
Tips
Do not allow your heel to raise off the platform. Placing your foot high on the platform will work your hamstrings more (the back of your legs) and placing your foot slightly lower on the platform will emphasise your quadriceps (front of your legs) more.
