LEG PRESS 4000

Start position
1. Adopt the right exercise position: Sit on the seat so that your upper body touches
the backrest completely. Make sure to adjust the backrest's slope ergonomically
to counteract existing back pain. Place your feet on the footrests about shoulder
width apart. The height of your feet on the footrest is determined by your legs,
which should be bent at an angle of approx. 90°. If you have knee problems, this
angle should not be less than 90°. Hold the handlebars with your hands (also
see Chapter 5.4).
2: Extend your legs against the resistance of the machine until your knees are
almost completely straight. Make sure not to hyperextend your knees! Breathe
out when you exert strain against the resistance. Mantain this position
