HOW: In a seated position in the leg curl machine, get set up with the leg straight and the pad just below the calf muscles. The other pad will be just above the kneecap, ensuring the leg does not move.
Hold onto the handles in front or to the side to stabilize the upper body and core.
Initiate the knee bend on both sides by bringing the heels down.
This motion is quick and at a higher tempo. The pad may come off of the back of the legs. You may be limited with how much range of motion you need to go through, either at the top or at the bottom.
Repeat for the prescribed repetitions.
FEEL: The back of the thigh is working.
COMPENSATION: Do not move the torso. Do not rotate the leg.
