leg presses
Seated pushing movements
Leg presses are a strength exercise performed on a machine where you push a weighted platform away from your body using your legs while seated or lying at an angle.
The movement targets the quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes: She does leg presses twice a week.
Unlike squats, the machine stabilizes your back, allowing heavier loads with less risk to the spine.
