REGRESSION · HOW TO DO IT

Full-ROM bilateral extension

These steps are written specifically for the Full-ROM bilateral extension. Follow them in order and stop before you lose the position.

  1. 01
    Set up your version

    Set up specifically for the Full-ROM bilateral extension. Sit with the knee joint lined up with the machine pivot and the pad resting just above the ankles. Keep hips and back supported.

  2. 02
    Move the pattern

    Straighten the knees until the legs are nearly straight. Move smoothly instead of kicking or slamming the weight.

  3. 03
    Match the demand

    Move through the full range only while every part of the rep stays controlled. Use both sides together and keep the effort symmetrical.

  4. 04
    Finish with control

    Squeeze the quads at the top, then lower until the knees are bent again without dropping the stack. Lower without dropping the stack.

Full-ROM bilateral extension is a regression of Machine Knee Extension. Use the written card above for its exact setup and execution.

Short range: Short range means the target muscle finishes squeezed in its shortened position.

WHY IT EARNS A SPOT

Own the position,
then earn the load.

The machine removes balance and hip demands, letting knee extension and the final shortened quad position receive the full training dose.
