πŸ“ SWEET. SIMPLE. STILL ON TRACK. 🍫

Trying to lose body fat doesn’t mean saying goodbye to dessert! πŸ™Œ

Calories are estimates and will vary depending on the Greek yogurt, pudding and mousse you choose, so check your product labels if you're tracking closely.

Save this one for later! ❀️

🧑 NEW TOY AT THE LOCAL PROJECT! 🦡πŸ”₯

You may have noticed our newest addition to the gym β€” our Leg Extension & Prone Curl Machine!

One machine, two fantastic exercises targeting both the front and back of your legs. πŸ’ͺ

🦡 LEG EXTENSION – QUADRICEPS

The leg extension targets your quads (front of the thighs).

πŸ‘‰ Sit with your back supported
πŸ‘‰ Position the roller pad across the front of your lower legs/ankles
πŸ‘‰ Straighten your knees to lift the weight
πŸ‘‰ Squeeze your quads at the top
πŸ‘‰ Slowly and CONTROLLED lower back down

Great for building stronger quads, supporting knee strength and adding some focused leg work to your training.

πŸ‘ PRONE LEG CURL – HAMSTRINGS

The prone leg curl targets the hamstrings β€” the muscles at the back of your thighs.
πŸ‘‰ Lie face down on the machine with your hips supported
πŸ‘‰ Position the roller pad just above the back of your ankles
πŸ‘‰ Keep your hips down and your body stable
πŸ‘‰ Bend your knees and curl your heels towards your glutes
πŸ‘‰ Squeeze your hamstrings at the top
πŸ‘‰ Slowly and under control lower the weight back down
Main muscles worked:
πŸ”₯ Biceps femoris
πŸ”₯ Semitendinosus
πŸ”₯ Semimembranosus
Your calves (gastrocnemius) assist with the movement.
Why train your hamstrings?
Strong hamstrings help with running, skiing, jumping and lifting, support knee stability, and balance the strength of your quads.

Not sure how to set it up?Please ask me! I’m more than happy to show you how to adjust the machine and find the right position and weight for you.

And if you haven't trained with us before… come and check out The Local Project in Fairlie. 🧑
