Leg Extension Machines

For fitness enthusiasts, athletes, and gym owners looking to upgrade their strength equipment collection, a quality seated leg extension machine is an invaluable investment. The main benefit of these machines is that they allow you to isolate the quads, known as open chain kinetic exercise. They work out all the muscles in the quads, including the rectus femoris muscle, which is hard to reach in other quad exercises, such as squats and lunges. Leg extension machines are also a great choice for beginners as they put no strain on the knee joint. 

When choosing the right gym leg extension machine for your needs, there are a number of factors to consider. One key consideration to take into account is the angle of the seat. We have a variety of options to choose from in our range, including models with good angled backs for achieving different ranges of motion. You should also look at how adjustable the machine is, as you want to be able to adjust the roller to accommodate short or long legs. 

You may also want to consider whether you want a leg extension machine or a dual-purpose leg extension and leg curl machine which also targets the hamstrings. Alternative products for the quads include using barbells and free weights like dumbbells, as well as ankle weights and resistance bands. Cable machines can also be effective for quad workouts.
