How to Leg curl
Starting Position
1. Position your body in the center of the machine and lie down so that your knees touch the edge of the pad.
2. Adjust the ankle pad to rest above the Achilles tendon.
3. Pull your feet towards your body so that your ankles are at a 90-degree angle.
4. Hold the handles and press your body against the machine.
Proper Form
1. Engage your hamstrings and glutes, and lift the ankle pads up to your hips.
2. Lower down only until your knees are fully extended against the weight resistance.
Breathing Technique
Exhale when you raise your legs, and inhale when you lower them.
Precautions
1. Please be careful not to fully extend your knees.
2. Please be careful not to lift your upper body.
