Selectorized Series: Cybex Leg Press

Hop on the Cybex Leg Press to strengthen 3 main leg muscles with one movement: your quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes.

Start by adjusting the back pad and moving the seat away from the foot plate far enough to allow yourself to be seated comfortably on the machine. Place your feet hip distance apart and parallel to one another on the foot plate. Your legs should form a 90 degree angle. Press through your heels and straighten your legs so that they are fully extended, but not locked. Be sure to slowly return to the 90 degree angle with control without allowing the weight plates to touch.
You can work both legs at once, or alternate between legs.

Try 3 sets of 15 reps with minimal rest between to maximize the burn and gain lean muscle. Try 3 sets of 15 reps with minimal rest between to maximize the burn and gain lean muscle.
