Overview
The Smith leg press is an exercise that targets the glutes as the main muscle group. It is performed by sitting on a machine with a padded seat and backrest, and then placing your feet on the footplate. You then push the weight up with your legs until your knees are straight, and then lower it back down. The Smith leg press is a great exercise for building strength and size in your glutes, and it can also be used to improve your overall leg strength.
