Machine Alternate Leg Extension (Plate Loaded)
The plate-loaded leg extension with independent arms, the legs straightening one after the other.
How to do it
Setup
Seated, knees at the pivots, each shin behind its own roller, hands on the handles.
Steps
- Straighten one leg while the other waits below.
- Lower it under control.
- Switch legs each rep.
Common mistakes
Both arms rising together: the resting leg stays down. Hips sliding forward on the seat: sit back and grip the handles. Dropping the lever: lower as slowly as you lift.
Breathing
Exhale extending, inhale lowering.
