45 Degree Leg Press Instructions:

Sit down on the machine with your back on the padded support. Place your feet on the platform. Your feet should be in the center to top of the platform and about shoulder width apart. Extend legs and release safety lock. Lower the weight by flexing at the knees. Only lower weight down until your calves are at a 90 degree angle to your quads. Push back up to starting position without locking at the knees. Repeat for desired reps.

Tips and Safety Advice:

Two important things to remember with 45 degree leg presses. First, never lock your knees out at the top of the movement. This takes the pressure off your target muscles making the exercises much less effective. Second, you only need to lower the weight down until your upper and lower legs make a 90 degree angle.
