Overview
The single-leg leg press is a machine exercise targeting the leg muscles, including the quads, glutes, and hamstrings. The leg press is often used as an accessory for squats or deadlifts, but can also be the main lower-body movement in a workout. It is often performed for moderate to high reps, such as 8-12 reps per set or more.
