Leg extension strength equipment

Leg extension

— exercise with the main load on the extension of the legs. Traditionally, it is performed as follows: the athlete sits on the seat of the machine, places his feet under the movable stop so that the protective rollers are on the ankles (the legs are bent in the initial position), and unbends the knees, overcoming the resistance of the stop. This is an isolating exercise for working out the quadriceps — the front muscles of the thigh.
