Instructions

Attach an ankle strap to one ankle and hook it up to a low cable pulley. Step slightly away from the pulley until the cable is taught. Grasp a support or railing and place your free hand (the side you will be working) on your hip. Allow your strapped leg to be pulled back behind you a little with your knee bent. From here, pull the cable forward by extending your knee so you straighten your leg, squeezing your quad muscle. With control, return your strapped leg to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then repeat on the opposite side.
