45 Leg Press Machine

 

For leg press machines, the 45° oblique leg press focuses more on the thigh muscles, while the 90° flat leg press focuses more on the posterior thigh and buttocks muscles than the oblique leg press.

 

However, it is precisely this 90° flat leg press that exposes the lumbar spine to the external force of weight, making the lumbar spine injury always on the alert.

 

Therefore, when using the inverted pedal machine for hip and leg training, special attention should be paid:

 

1) It is best to choose a 45° inclined inverted pedal for hip and leg training, especially for beginners;

 

2) Choose a suitable weight for 90° flat inverted pedal training.

It is recommended to use a 45° inclined inverted pedal or have strict protection when training with heavy weights or heavy weights;

 

3) When using a 90° flat inverted pedal machine for training, pay attention to the position of the lumbar spine and pelvis when lying down.

Do not lean too low in order to stimulate more muscles such as the buttocks and hamstrings, and avoid the weight-bearing gravity line passing directly through the lumbar spine;

 

4) When using a 90° flat inverted pedal machine for training, pay attention to the position of the feet. Do not place them too high so that the weight-bearing external force gravity line passes directly through the lumbar spine.

 

5) When using a 90° flat inverted pedal machine for training, keep the feet, pelvis and weight-bearing gravity line in a straight line.
