The pulley leg extension seated workout is a great exercise for targeting the quads.

It involves sitting on a machine with a pulley system and extending the legs against resistance.

This workout effectively isolates the quads, helping to strengthen and tone the muscles without putting excessive strain on other secondary muscles.

Sit on the leg extension machine with your back against the seat and your feet flat on the floor.
Adjust the pulley so that it is at the lowest setting and attach the ankle strap to your right ankle.
Hold onto the machine’s handles for stability and extend your right leg straight out in front of you, keeping your knee slightly bent.
Slowly lower your right leg back down to the starting position, maintaining control throughout the movement.
Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.
Switch the ankle strap to your left ankle and perform the exercise with your left leg.

Adjust the pulley machine to a suitable weight that challenges your quads without compromising form.
Sit upright with your back firmly against the seat and your feet shoulder-width apart on the footrest.
Keep your core engaged and maintain a controlled movement as you extend your legs, focusing on contracting your quads.
Avoid locking your knees at the top of the movement to prevent excessive stress on the joint.
Control the descent as you bring your legs back to the starting position, feeling the stretch in your quads.
Perform the exercise with a slow and controlled tempo, aiming for 2-3 sets of 10-12 repetitions to build strength and endurance.
