Conseils techniques
When performing the leg extension, extend your legs until they are straight but avoid locking your knees at the top of the movement. This can put unnecessary strain on your knee joints. Always ensure that your movements are slow and controlled, both while lifting and lowering the weight. Jerky or rapid movements can lead to muscle strain or injury.
Using too much weight can lead to poor form and potential injury. Start with a lighter weight to ensure you can perform the exercise with proper form. Then gradually increase the weight as your strength improves.
