Seated Leg Press - 4860
The Machine
• Arc of Motion - The machine pivots from
below creating an arc congruent with the
functional movement of the legs. This also
decreases the detrimental forces on the knee
by maintaining an optimum knee/foot
relationship throughout the range of motion. A
leg press that pivots from above or that moves
in a linear path is inconsistent with the natural
arc of motion and creates excessive forces
within the knee during flexion.
• Accommodating Foot Plate - The movement
of the foot plate eliminates excessive motion
at the ankle and maintains a near neutral position,
decreasing undue forces throughout the lower extremity.
• Range of Motion Adjustment - The starting position and range of motion limit are both
adjusted from a pull pin below the legs.
• Variable Resistance - The drive system provides appropriately varying resistance that is
maximal at the end of the motion where the body's mechanical advantage increases.
