Muscles Exercised: Hamstrings & Gastrocnemius
Setup
Load the unit with desired amount of weight to ensure appropriate resistance and secure plates with retaining pin. Rotate knee pad to desired side and place non-exercising knee on pad. Position opposite leg with upper thigh against pad and knee aligned with machine pivot (axis of rotation). Tibia pad should contact the back of the lower leg, above the ankle. Rest forearms on elbow pad and grip the handles.
Performing the Exercise
With a controlled motion, curl leg up until fully flexed. Return the leg to the start position and repeat the motion, while maintaining proper body positioning.
TIP: Feet position should depend on the goals of the exercise. Pointing the toes during the exercise allows focus on the Hamstring muscles. Flexing the feet will increase activation of the Gastrocnemius muscle.
