Leg Press Position: Proper Positioning Boosts Your Workout
The leg press is a cornerstone exercise for building and sculpting the lower body. Many gym-goers fall into routines, using the same position repeatedly. Varying your leg press position helps prevent plateauing and ensures complete development of muscles by targeting different angles. Common mistakes in weight training include monotony. Not varying your leg press position may limit growth potential and risk injury. A wide stance targets inner thighs, a narrow stance hits outer thighs, while high or low foot placements emphasize glutes, hamstrings, or quadriceps respectively.
