Single leg presses are useful in building the quads, hamstrings, glutes, and calves, and addressing lower body muscle imbalances between the two legs. It also works the stabilising muscles more than a standard leg press. Here, one of our PTs demonstrates how to do a single leg press.
1. Adjust the seat position so that your knees are at a 90 degree angle when your feet are on the plate.
2. Put the pin in your desired weight. Start with less than half of your standard leg press weight.
3. Sit with your back flat against the back support, grab the handles on each side, and then place your left foot on the foot plate. Your right foot should remain flat on the floor.
4. Straighten out your leg, stopping just before you lock out the knee.
5. Pause before bringing your leg back to the starting position.
Repeat for your number of reps and then swap legs.
