Leg Press

Muscles Targeted:

  • The Leg Press allows you to perform compound movements that target the quads, hamstrings, and glutes.

  • Adjusting feet position can increase the activation of certain muscles.

  • The higher your feet on the leg press the more hamstring involvement. The lower your feet the more the quads will be targeted.

  • A wide stance focuses more on the inner leg while narrow stances focus more on the outer leg.

Form:

  • Perform this exercise as you would a squat.

  • Drive your knees out through your toes and keep constant tension throughout the entire set.

Rep Ranges:

  • This exercise is best performed in moderate to high rep ranges and can be combined with other exercises in supersets or circuits.
