In this article i will talk about standing leg curl and i will give you execution, training tips and techniques, because there are a lot of trainees didn't know how to do exercises using this curl machine.
Execution:
1) Place you front standing leg curl machine2) Place the ankle against the planned roll back has this effect. The front of your thigh should always be in support against the padded support in front of you and your knee should bend freely.
3) Keep the knee of your leg of support stretched but not locked and your foot completely in contact with the ground all the time.
4) Enter the standing leg curl machine handles or supports to stabilize your bust.
5) When you're ready, inhale slightly more than normal and hold your breath by bending the knee and pushing off with your highest possible foot against resistance without leaving the roller touching your buttocks.
6) Keep the right bust and take you slightly forward at the level of the hip, running the movement.
7) Hold a moment, then exhale slowly down the leg. Avoid leaving the burden on the stack at the bottom of the movement, this removes the muscle tension.
8) Pause when you reach the starting position.
9) When you have done the required number of repetitions with one leg, proceed to the other leg.
Training Tips:
1) For maximum efficiency and security at the level of the knee, keep joints the hip and the knee stable, leaving a slight freedom of action. This small movement can serve as a safety valve against the forces exerted at the level of the knee.2) As the hamstrings are poly-articulaire muscles, they can also be worked with hip extension exercises, but such workouts are not as effectively seeking the short portion of the biceps femoris. Make the standing leg curl or lying to get a full development of the hamstrings.
