LEG EXTENSION MACHINE

LEG EXTENSION MACHINE

Postural rotation machine with abdominal stabilization for the strengthening of the quadriceps muscles through the knee extension action. Progressive auxotonic resistance. “Safety Knee” system for lowering the tension on the knee and reducing the risk of hyper extension and hyper flexion. Canali’s “Safety Back” system reduces the tension on the lower back.

BENEFITS
The lifting of the moving part of the machine allows to produce the resistant load without using added weights. The same lifting movement allows to support the spinal column and stabilize the abdominal muscles during the specific work out on each individual machine. There is the

possibility to use the machine with one limb at a time. The Auxotonic resistance, or the progressive load resistance, allows you to train at the best during the entire range of movement without decreasing the training in the most favourable execution angles. The rotation of the machine engages the abdominal muscles reducing the cutting action on the knee, allowing a muscular action on the vastus muscles without producing tension on the tendons, and eliminating the compression effect on the knee. This is called the Canali “Safety Knee System”.

LEG PRESS MACHINE

LEG PRESS MACHINE

This is a postural rotation machine with abdominal stabilization for the strengthening of the quadriceps, triceps surae muscles, buttocks and ischiocrural muscles through the extension action of the knee and the hip. It allows the user to employ progressive auxotonic resistance to maximise the training benefit. The “Safety Knee” system lowers the tension on the knee, and the Canali “Safety Back” system reduces the tension on the back.

BENEFITS
The lifting motion of the machine allows the user to produce the resistant load without using added weights. The same lifting movement supports the spinal column and stabilizes the abdominal muscles during the workout. The machine rises in the opposite direction to the thrust, supporting the back on the seat, producing a progressive support to the higher loads that this machine can generate. The machine can be used

to train one limb at a time, ideal for elite athletes, the deconditioned market of for injury rehabilitation.
The width of the platform allows you to push forward the forefoot to work on the anterior chain, or with the heels to work on the posterior chain. The Auxotonic resistance, or the progressive load resistance, allows you to train at optimum levels during the entire range of movement without decreasing the training in the most favourable execution angles. The rotation of the machine engages the abdominal muscles reducing the compression action on the knee, allowing a muscular action without producing tension on the tendons (the Canali “Safety Knee System”).
