Leg Extension (IL-LE)
| Machine Weight: | lbs. = 300 | kg. = 136 |
| Max User Weight: | lbs. = 350 | kg. = 158.8 |
| Starting Resistance: | lbs. = 4 per work arm | kg. = 1.8 per work arm |
| Total Max Resistance: | lbs. = 135 per side; 270 total | kg. = 50 per side; 100 total |
| Max Plate Capacity*: | 3-45 lb. plates | 2-25 kg. plates |
| Size** (L x W x H): | in. = 60 x 73 x 54 | cm = 153 x 186 x 137 |
| Live Area*** (L x W): | in. = 108 x 85 x 54 | cm = 275 x 216 x 137 |
Note: *Capacities listed are calculated using a thickness of 1-5/8" for 45lb weight plates
and
48mm for 25 kg weight plates. If your facility uses thicker weight plates, the capacity
may be
reduced.
Note: **Dimensions are without weight plates.
Note: ***Live Area dimensions calculated and shown assuming a weight plate diameter of 46
cm.
Muscles Exercised: Quadriceps
Setup
Load the unit with desired amount of weight to ensure appropriate resistance and secure plates with retaining pin. Adjust the back pad to align the knee joint with the machine pivot (axis of rotation). Grip the handles located on the sides of the seat. Tighten and clasp seatbelt.
Performing the Exercise
With a controlled motion extend the legs to nearly full extension without locking out knees. Return the legs to the start position and repeat the motion while maintaining proper body positioning.
