OPTIMA SERIES LEG EXTENSION (OSLE)

Muscles Exercised - Quadriceps

Setup

Adjust the back pad to align the knee joint with the machine
pivot (axis of rotation). Adjust the lower leg pad to a comfort­able position above the ankle. Check the weight stack to
ensure appropriate resistance. Grip the handles located on the
sides of the seat. Position body with chest up and with
shoulders back and against the back pad.

Performing the Exercise

Rotate the thighs so the knees are pointing upwards. With a
controlled motion extend the legs to nearly full extension
without locking out knees. Return the legs to the start position
without letting the resistance rest on the stack. Repeat the
motion while maintaining proper body positioning.

TIP: Position the thighs with the knees pointing upwards and
maintain this while performing the exercise. This position is
safer for the knee joint and more effective for the Quadriceps.

Position body so knees are slightly bent, keeping feet firmly on
the foot plates. Check the weight stack to ensure appropriate
resistance. Grip the handles and position the body with head
and chest up and back straight.

Performing the Exercise

Stabilize the body in position, pressing feet firmly into the foot
plates. With a controlled motion, draw back the arms as far as
can be controlled. Return the handles to the start position while
maintaining resistance. Repeat the motion while maintaining
proper body positioning.

TIP: While performing the exercise, keep the back straight and
think about drawing the elbows back beyond the body, as this
increases the mental concentration on the muscles being
trained.
