The Cybex Plate Loaded Kneeling Leg Curl provides superior
positioning when compared to conventional standing leg curls
because of the knee axis of rotation alignment. The kneeling
position aligns the axis of the kneeling leg so that the user only
has to level their hips for proper alignment on the exercised leg.
The flexed hip position and the use of elbow pads and handles
help to limit low back hyper-extension while providing a position
similar to that of the Seated Leg Curl.
