Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 I feel kind of stupid because it seems so simple, but I'm confused about leg extensions (on weight machine at gym). At PT, I was told to do full arch extensions, but at my follow-up visit with my surgeon (post L.R.), he said NO, NO! only do 30-40 degree arch, which I thought meant from straight out, bend the leg a little less than halfway to a " sitting " position. I double-checked with the gym staff this morning, and he said he thought it probably meant to go from the " sitting " 90 degree position up to a little less than halfway from full extension (straight out). ARRGH! Does anyone know the right way to do these?!? And, while I'm at it, this 30-40 degree rule is also supposed to apply to leg curls (hamstrings) and presses, any advice on those would also be appreciated! Thanks!
