Smith Machine Leg Press
The Smith Machine Leg Press is a strength movement that targets your quadriceps. Here's how to do it with clean form.
How to do the Smith Machine Leg Press
- Sit against the pad with your feet placed shoulder-width on the bar, toes slightly out.
- Unrack and lower by bending your knees toward your chest, stopping before your lower back rounds off the pad.
- Press through your heels to full extension without locking your knees.
- Control the descent — don't let the weight drop.
