Leg Extension - Machine
Set the machine so the bottom pad is in front of your shins (not on your feet or ankles) and that the back of your knees are pressed firmly back into the seat (if unsure ask an instructor).
Keeping your tummy tight so that you do not arch your back, slowly extend your legs out so that they become straight. Squeeze as much of the movement as your legs will allow at the top and then slowly lower your legs back down. Before the weight stack touches together start the upward movement again.
