Instructions

Lever Angled Single Leg Press

Starting Position:
1. Sit on the lever angled leg press machine with your back against the padded backrest and your head up.
2. Position one foot on the platform, ensuring it is flat and centered. Your knee should be aligned over your ankle.
3. Place your other foot off the platform, resting it on the floor.

Movement Instructions:
4. Begin the exercise by lowering the platform towards you. This is done by bending your knee while keeping your foot flat on the platform.
5. Keep your other leg relaxed and off the platform.
6. Continue lowering the weight until your knee is at a 90-degree angle or as far as comfortable without pain.
7. Once at the lowest position, push through your heel to extend your knee and return to the starting position.
8. Exhale as you push back up and inhale as you lower down.
9. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch to the other leg.

Tips:
- Keep your core engaged throughout the exercise to maintain stability.
- Avoid locking your knee at the top of the movement.
- Adjust the seat position, if necessary, to ensure proper alignment.
- Start with lighter weights to master the movement before increasing resistance.
