How to do it
- Lie face down with your knees just off the end of the bench, lined up with the machine's pivot.
- Hook one ankle under the pad and let the other leg rest straight and relaxed.
- Curl your heel toward your glutes while keeping both hips pressed flat into the bench.
- Lower slowly until the leg is almost straight, then switch legs.
Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
