Sled Glute-Dominant Leg Press
The 45° leg press with the feet set high on the platform; the deeper hip bend moves the work toward the glutes.
How to do it
Setup
Back and hips on the pad, feet high on the platform, shoulder-width.
Steps
- Lower until the knees come toward the chest.
- Keep the heels planted and the hips down.
- Press through the heels without locking the knees.
Common mistakes
Heels lifting off the high platform: press through them. Hips curling up at depth: stop before the lower back peels off. Toes over the top edge: the whole foot goes on the plate.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale pressing.
