Make every rep count.
- 01
Sit tall with your back firmly against the pad, core braced, and spine neutral. Place your feet on the footrests and position your knees/thighs against the pads.
- 02
Start with control (don’t let the weight stack slam). Exhale as you press your legs outward, leading with your knees and keeping your torso still.
- 03
Open until you reach a strong, comfortable range—no bouncing or overstretching.
- 04
Inhale and slowly return to the start, resisting the weight the whole way.
- 05
Repeat for your prescribed reps, keeping the movement smooth and controlled.
