Nautilus Chrome Leg Curl

Lying Leg Curl provides perfect exercise for the hamstrings.  Thick roller pads provide maximum comfort to the Achilles/heal area during exercise.  Proper full range resistance is provided by the patented Nautilus cam.  A mild stretch is provided when legs are straight (no slop in the chains) to help maintain and/or improve hamstring flexibility.  150 pound weight stack in 10 pound increments will keep even the strongest among us challenged.  Trainers tip: by placing a 1" piece of garden hose onto one of the weight stack guide rods, a visual target is created after your first repetition (garden hose will stay in place at this high water mark position throughout the rest of your set).  This will force you to squeeze hard at the top of each repetition to ensure maximum range of motion.  It will also drastically display improper throwing of the weight as the lifter is unable to control the weight at the top of the range without a bounce at the top.  This will force the lifter to slow the repetitions down, eliminating momentum from the exercise.  This dramatically improves the quality of the exercise and allow the cam to work most effectively matching the subjects natural strength curve precisely.  Less weight is needed when the weight is lifted (and not thrown) in order to reach muscular failure.
