Narrow Stance 45 Degree Leg Press Video Guide

1. Set up for the narrow stance 45 degree leg press by loading the weight plates you want to use on the leg press machine.
2. Sit down on the leg press machine and position your feet in a narrow stance, in the middle of the foot plate.
3. Extend your legs to take the weight off the racks, and release the safety.
4. Your knees should be slightly bent at the start of the movement, as this will ensure the weight is on your quads.
5. Slowly lower the weight down until your legs are just past a 45 degree angle.  
6. Push through your heels and extend your legs to move the weight back up to the starting position.
7. Repeat movement for desired reps.
