Exercise Demonstration:
Leg Extensions

September 30, 2008 in Exercise: Lower by GymJox

Bodybuilder and fitness model Frank Sepe demonstrates how to properly perform leg extensions using the leg extension machine.

This exercise is a great way to build your quads, and depending on the position of your legs you can even target specific areas of those muscles (i.e. inner, outer quad) to further customize your workout routine to fit your needs.

Exercise Tips:Exhale as you lift the weight, while simultaneouly squeezing your quad muscles at the top of the movement.

Inhale on the way back down as you lower the weight (to prepare for the next repetition).

DO NOT just let the weight fall back down to the starting position… control it!
