Most leg-press platforms allow you to place your f

Most leg-press platforms allow you to place your feet high, low, wide, narrow, or any number of combinations in between. The combination you choose can actually change which muscles the leg press targets, making this exercise extremely versatile.

So for everyone out there that isn’t sure on what foot placement does what, keep reading…

1. High Foot Placement
Placing your feet higher reduces the degree knee flexion/ extension, increasing the hip flexion and extension meaning you’ll feel increased stretch in glutes, and ultimately they’ll be working harder.

2. Low Foot Placement
A lower foot placement reduces the degree of hip extension and flexion while increasing knee flection and extension. That means you get more quad activation and less involvement from the glutes.

3. Wide stance foot placement
By bringing your feet further apart, the emphasis will move on to your adductors (inner thigh) Surprisingly this move works your glutes less as consequently a wide stance reduces the hip flection and extension.

4. Narrow stance low foot placement
By bringing your feet closer together you will work the outer thigh muscles. The lower you place your narrow stance, the more quad dominant this variation will be. Note that by placing the feet close together though you will already be placing more emphasis on the quad muscles, so this is a very good variation for those who want to build up this muscle in particular.

5. Narrow stance high foot placement
By raising your foot place you will target the glutes more due to the increases hip flextion.

6. The same applies for a single leg press depending on the positioning of the leg, however It forces you to use less weight and have greater control over the weight, it also ensures you're symmetrically building your lower body instead of letting one side handle most of the work.

7. Seated calf raises are especially good for working the soleus muscles and allow you to add significant weight to the exercise with less risk of losing your balance.

It’s easy to get carried away by the feel-good sensations you get from exercise, whether you find it empowering, therapeutic or energising, intense workout cannot be sustained long term, you’ll burn out!

Getting moderate levels of activity in between days of more intense workouts known as “active rest rest days” is a way to stay active in alternative ways, such as walking, yoga, swimming, whilst still promoting muscle recovery.
