Favor higher reps when performing seated leg extensions. The key is constant tension: use a moderate weight, go up to a soft lock at the top (not a full lockout), and don’t let the weight plates touch at the bottom. Keep the movement smooth and fluid, and push through the burn as much as possible. On the final rep, hold the top position for as long as you can. You’ll be limping after this one!
Right now, training during this COVID-19 period is uncharted territory. Some people will get into fantastic shape if they have a well-equipped home gym, while others may struggle to maintain their gains. If you don’t have access to a leg extension machine or other gym equipment, try some of the exercises shown in On The Road To Inactivity: How To Exercise Your Right To Travel.
No matter what, stay positive and stay active. We’ll get through this!
