LEGS
Seated Leg Curl
Note: This exercise is only available on the Elite model.
Adjust the seat to its lowest position. Adjust the leg lever to its high-
est comfortable position by grabbing the attached handle and pulling the
release lever with your middle finger. Sit on the seat and place your ankles
atop the lower roller pad, but under the middle set of roller pads. Adjust
the middle set of roller pads so that they are snug against your shins. These
pads will help keep your body in the proper position. Grasp the handles
and bend at the knee, pushing the roller pads down and toward the ma-
chine. Return slowly.
