Leg Curl
Leg Curl
Choose your desired weight on the leg curl machine and ensure that the pad is adjusted to a comfortable position just above the back of your heels.
Engage your hamstrings by slightly lifting the weight off the stack, assuming the starting position for the exercise.
Take a deep breath, tighten your hamstrings, and curl the weight upward as far as you can while maintaining a neutral spine.
Gradually lower the weight back to the starting position in a controlled manner.
Repeat the movement for your preferred number of repetitions, maintaining proper form and technique throughout.
Leg Curl Tips
To maintain tension in your hamstrings, avoid fully locking out your knees during the exercise.
Maintain proper form by keeping your hips pressed firmly against the pad and preventing your back from arching.
Ensure that your lower back remains flat against the pad throughout the entire movement.
Avoid excessive forward jutting of the head.
Maintain control over the exercise by avoiding any momentum and controlling the tempo throughout the entire range of motion.
