Instructions
Preparation
- Sit on machine with back on padded support. Place feet on
slightly high on platform. Grasp handles to sides.
Execution
- Push one platform away by extending knee and hip. Return
to original position. Repeat with opposite leg. Continue by alternating
between sides.
Comments
- Adjust seat and back support to accommodate near full range
of motion without forcing hips to bend at waist. Keep knees pointed
same directions as feet. Do not allow heels to raise off of platform,
pushing with both heel and forefoot. This exercise may be performed
by alternating (as described), simultaneous, or in simultaneous-alternating
fashion.
