Single Leg Leg Press

Single Leg Press Instructions

• Sit inside a leg press machine.
• Put one foot in the middle of the platform, roughly shoulder-width, with the vacant leg placed on the floor in a secure position.
• Extend your leg to push the weight up and release the safety.
• With a slight bend in the knee, lower the weight slowly until your knee reaches just a little more than 45-degrees.
• Feel your glute and quad musculature loading for the press.
• Drive through your heel and extend your leg back to the starting position again.

*Tips*

• Do not lock your knees at any point.
• Focus on the range of motion and the quality of the movement. Don't use excessive momentum. 
• Don't let your knee track internally or externally severely.
