Leg Curl Machine (Lying)

How to do it

Lie face down on the leg curl machine with the pad resting just above the heels and knees aligned with the machine pivot.
Grip the side handles and keep the hips pressed flat against the bench.
Curl the heels up toward the glutes by bending the knees against the pad resistance.
Squeeze the hamstrings at the top of the curl without lifting the hips off the bench.
Lower the pad back down slowly to full leg extension, resisting the weight the whole way.
Keep the toes relaxed and avoid using a hard kick to start each repetition.
