Standing Cable Leg Curl

Standing Cable Leg Curl Instructions

• Set the cable attachment to the lowest setting.
• Stand facing the machine and with the strap attached just above your ankle.
• Your non-working leg is slightly bent.
• Maintain proper posture with your core engaged, neutral spine and eyes fixed straight ahead. 
• Slightly hinge at the hips
• Create tension on the cable by slightly moving your leg back. 
• Use your hamstring to curl the weight by bringing your heel to your hamstring. 
• Don't 'jerk' the weight up, control the movement.
• Bring the weight back down to the starting position while maintaining tension on the hamstring.

*Tips*

• Manipulating foot position will slightly alter the stimulus on the exercise.
