Instructions
Preparation
- Lie supine on padded platform. Place hands on bars above
head or to sides. Place feet flat on lever platform with hips
and knees bent.
Execution
- Push lever platform by extending hips and knees until knees
are straight. Flex hips and knees to descend until knees are
just short of complete flexion. Repeat.
Comments
- Adjust machine to accommodate near full range of motion without
forcing hips to rise at waist. Keep knees pointed same directions
as feet. Do not allow heels to raise off of platform, pushing
with both heel and forefoot. Placing feet slightly high on platform
emphasize Gluteus Maximus. Placing feet slightly lower on platform
emphasize Quadriceps. Unique apperatus is designed and built
by Tracey Cheuvront.
