Leg Extensions - Superexplode your Thigh Muscles With This Super Effective Workout

The Leg Extension exercise is another basic but highly effective exercise

. This exercise develops the Quadriceps muscle group which is focused around the front of the thigh.

If you are going to be performing leg extension exercises then I must recommend that you do not do them with heavy weights as they will create an undue load on your knees and this is not good as it can and may result in an injury to your knee. If you already have any existing knee problems then you should not be doing this exercise at all as it will just exacerbate your existing knee condition.

How to perform leg extensions:

1: Sit on a leg extension machine with the pads over the top of your ankles and your back resting against the back pad.

2: Your legs, or more specifically, your upper calves should be about half an inch from the pad of the seat.

3: Now, as the name suggests, you need to extend you legs until they are straight, then hold this position for a few seconds.

4: As you bring the weight down make sure that your knees are not going further than 90 degrees in the bend, going further than this will produce undue stress on your knees which we are trying to avoid.

5: Repeat for number of reps required.

Always make sure that you squeeze at the top of the leg extension; this will make sure you get the most out of this exercise. If this exercise gets too easy for you instead of adding weights try leaning further back and turning your toes in either direction to target different muscles.
