Cable Leg Extension Overview

Cable Leg Extension strengthens the quadriceps by extending the knee against resistance, ideal for isolating and building the front thigh muscles.

Muscles Worked

Equipment Needed

Cable Machine, Ankle Cuff

How To Perform the Cable Leg Extension

  1. Attach an ankle cuff to the low pulley of a cable machine and secure it around your ankle.
  2. Stand facing the machine, holding the frame or handles for support.
  3. Start with your working leg slightly bent and your other leg planted firmly on the ground.
  4. Extend your working leg forward, straightening the knee and lifting the weight.
  5. Pause briefly at full extension, ensuring your quadriceps are fully contracted.
  6. Slowly return to the starting position, controlling the movement.
  7. Repeat for the desired number of reps, then switch to the other leg.
  8. Exhale as you extend your leg and inhale as you return to the starting position.
