 Before starting the exercise, make sure the back pad is set properly so you can complete the full range of motion. The lower you set the pad, the deeper you will be able to bring your legs. The greater the range of motion, the more effective this exercise will be.  Sit into the leg press and grip the handles at the bottom of the press. Grip the handles throughout the lift to prevent your back from coming up off the pad, and to eliminate the tendency to push your legs with your hands and assist in the lift.  Place your feet on the platform. Unless you are focusing on a specific muscle group foot placement should be similar to the placement you use on your squats.

 Press the platform up, and when you have the weight under control release the safety catches  Take a deep breath into your chest and lower the platform in a smooth, controlled fashion until your thighs touch your torso. You may have to exhale slightly as your legs press against your body.  Without pausing press the platform back up. Exhale your breath as you complete the lift. Do not let your knees lock out at the top between sets.  Select a weight that you can perform all of your repetitions using proper technique. On your last 1-2 sets, your last repetitions should be very difficult, but you should continue to complete the full range of motion on all reps.

 Gluteus Maximus  Semimembranosus  Semitendinosus  Biceps Femoris  Quadricep Muscles (Vastus Lateralis, Intermedius and Medialis)  Rectus Femoris

 To increase the emphasis on your glutes and hamstrings, place your feet high on the platform.  To increase the emphasis on your quads, place your feet low on the platform and close together.  To increase the emphasis on your adductors place your feet wide on the platform.

 Partial Repetitions: set the back pad as low as possible and bring the platform down until your thighs are pressing against your abs and chest; completing partial repetitions greatly reduces the effectiveness of the exercise.  Locking your knees at the top: don’t allow your knees to lock out at the top, keep the tension of the weight on your legs throughout the exercise.  Pushing your knees with your hands: keep your hands on the handles, if you cannot complete the lift without assistance then reduce the weight.
