Cable Seated Leg Extension

How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

1. 01Place a bench facing away from a low pulley and attach an ankle cuff to the working leg.
2. 02Sit tall near the bench edge with the thigh supported and the knee bent so the cable runs behind the lower leg.
3. 03Brace the pelvis and extend the knee until the leg is nearly straight without kicking or lifting the thigh.
4. 04Pause with the quadriceps contracted without forcefully locking the knee.
5. 05Bend the knee slowly under cable tension, complete the side, and switch legs.
