Lever Angled Leg Press

The Lever Angled Leg Press targets your quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes.

To perform the exercise:

  1. Adjust the seat and footplate to your height.
  2. Place your feet shoulder-width apart on the footplate.
  3. Push the footplate away by extending your legs.
  4. Slowly return to the starting position by bending your knees.

How to perform the Lever Angled Leg Press

  1. Set up. Set up in a stable, balanced starting position appropriate for the Lever Angled Leg Press using your leverage machine.
  2. Brace and execute. Brace your core, control the descent, and move through a full pain-free range of motion while emphasizing your glutes.
  3. Reset. Reverse the movement under control and reset between repetitions, keeping your form crisp on every rep.

Coaching cues

  • Move with intent — every rep should feel deliberate, not rushed.
  • Drive force through your glutes rather than momentum.
  • Keep your breathing steady: exhale on the hard part, inhale on the reset.

Common mistakes

  • Using too much weight and losing positional control.
  • Cutting the range of motion short and missing the target muscle.
  • Letting your spine round or hyperextend instead of staying neutral.
