lying on flat bench chest side supported and facing towards
cable set up above you. hook cable to ankle cuffs and then just
do a leg extension.

if you don’t have a partner :
INVERTED BAND QUAD EXTENSION
“downward dog extensions ”
use a big loop band as heavy as you can handle. band loops
around the back of your knees on the back end and the other
end is held under your hands on the front end in a push up position.
basically do a downward dog yoga position which will be a leg/quad
driven extension into the top and let knees bend into the bottom end>
its the toughest in the top extension and that’s what we want. itll destroy
you if you get it nailed down.
3 sets : failure
