Calf Extension; (Ss-Ce) - Life Fitness Insignia Series Owner's Manual

Calf Extension (SS-CE)
Exercise
Muscles Used: Gastrocnemius & Soleus
Setup:
Adjust the seat back to allow a slight bend in the knees when the balls-of-the-feet are
positioned on the footplate. Check the weight stack to ensure appropriate resistance.
Position the hips firmly against the back pad and grip the handles located on the sides of the
seat pad. Body is positioned with chest-up, shoulders back and against back pad.
Movement: With a controlled motion, press upward on the balls-of-the-feet as far as can be controlled,
while maintaining the knees slightly bent. DO NOT LOCK OR HYPEREXTEND THE KNEES.
Return the footplate to the start position, without letting the resistance rest on the stack.
Repeat the motion, while maintaining proper body positioning.
