Inflight Seated Leg Extension / Leg Curl

Description

If you’re ready to build strong legs, strengthen the muscles and tendons that support your knees, and tone and tighten your quads and hamstrings, the Inflight Seated Leg Extension / Leg Curl (CT-MSEC) will transform your old-school leg workouts with this modern-design machine.

To get started, with a leg workout on the Inflight Seated Leg Extension / Leg Curl (CT-MSEC) machine, start with a 10 to 15 minute aerobic warm-up like jogging, walking, or cycling. Once your muscles and tendons are loosened and ready to engage in more challenging resistance exercise, you can safely do leg extension and leg curl exercises.

Inflight Leg Extension/Curl Features & Benefits

First, adjust the ankle pad and back pad with the quick-release handles to fit your body size for the Seated Leg Extension / Leg Curl (CT-MSEC). Then slide into the padded chair and place your feet behind the ankle pad for leg extensions.

Reach over and pull the weight stack pin out. Select an easy-to-lift weight to begin with, and push the pin in firmly. Then grab the padded grips on the side of the machine and inhale. Tighten your abs and keep your back against the padded seat. From this starting point, slowly extend your legs and lift the weight stack, exhaling as you go. You’ll feel your core engage while your quads do most of the work to complete one repetition of this exercise.

• Give your quads a few more reps at this lighter weight to get used to what the exercise feels like. Then increase the weight to make the exercise more challenging.
• Go for 3 to 5 sets of 10 to 12 reps each for leg extensions. Leg extensions on this high-quality machine will help you develop your quads because it’s ergonomically designed to isolate these muscles better than many other free weight exercises.
• The Inflight Seated Leg Extension / Leg Curl (CT-MSEC) comes standard with a 150-pound weight stack, but if that’s kid’s play to you, you can upgrade the weight stack to 300 pounds.

 

Additional Leg Conditioning Specifications

You can also use the Inflight Seated Leg Extension / Leg Curl (CT-MSEC) to do leg curls. Leg curls are an excellent exercise to strengthen your glutes and hamstrings. In this exercise, you’ll slide on to the padded seat and rest your calves on the top of the ankle pad.

• And instead of lifting with your quads, you’ll be pushing downward and backward with your glutes and hamstrings. Some leg curl machines require you to lie face down, but the Inflight Seated Leg Extension / Leg Curl (CT-MSEC) is designed to make leg curls more comfortable, and just as effective.
• Making these two exercises a regular part of your workout will strengthen your leg muscles, improve knee and joint strength, and ultimately help you improve your athletic prowess any time your leg muscles are called into action. Strength training also helps reduce body fat and increase bone density to protect you from osteoporosis.

 

This well-built leg extension and leg curl machines comes with a lifetime warranty on the frame and a limited warranty on the parts. Get to work on the Inflight Seated Leg Extension / Leg Curl (CT-MSEC), and you’ll no doubt see a change in the strength and muscle definition in your legs within just a few weeks.

 

Inflight Seated Leg Extension / Leg Curl (CT-MSEC) FEATURES:

Frame Materials

All Inflight Fitness exercise equipment is constructed of heavy-duty 11 and 12ga structural tubing with an ASTM rating of A500 grade (minimum mechanical properties of 58,000 PSI ultimate tensile strength and 46,000 PSI yield strength). All flanges are a minimum of ¼” thick. All steel components are machined to a minimum tolerance of +/- .030″.

Construction

All MIG (metal inert gas) welding is in accordance with the following codes and/or standards: 3:1 AWS, A3.0 Welding Terms and Definitions 3.2 AWS Dl.1-81 Structural Welding Code-Steel 3.2 AWS D9.1 Specifications. All TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding is in accordance with Mil-Std-2219.

Frame Finish

Each piece of equipment is prepared for powder coating with a high-temperature, high-pressure iron phosphate wash to ensure optimum adhesion of the electrostatically applied TGIC polyester powder. The coating is then baked at 375 degrees F and carefully monitored to ensure complete curing. This coating is scuff resistant and long wearing. Technical summaries are determined using 3.0 -5.0 mil powder film over iron-phosphated, pretreated steel using and conforming with the following test methods: ASTM B5965-96, C ASTM D 3451-93, 13 ULDTOV2 organic coatings.

Padding and Upholstery

All of our selectorized weight equipment is fitted with black vinyl covered HR molded cushions. The molded cushions have a density of 100 and a durometer of 40-45. The back cushions incorporate lumbar support and the bottom cushions are contoured to provide comfort and proper positioning. This material is long lasting and easy to clean.

However, if you need a custom color, custom pads are available. We use a padding material of 2″ thick crosslinked polyolefin foam, which has extremely low water absorption, excellent weathering properties, and superior physical properties to neoprene or polyurethane type foams. We cover the pad with your choice of “Naugahyde” or “Boltaflex” vinyl.

All pads are top and blind-stitched. Foam is glued to a 3/4″ thick support board, radiused and chamfered for durability.

Bearings

All pivots rotate on either ABEC-1 precision ball bearings (Load Rating for 1″=2529 pounds), contained in a cast or machined housing or a self-lubricating Oilite bronze bushing in a machined steel housing to provide smooth, quiet movement and precise alignment.

Cables

1/4″ diameter, 7 x 19 strand, mil-spec aircraft cable with a black nylon coating. All fittings are stainless steel and swaged to the cable. The cable assembly is rated at a minimum breaking strength of 4200 lbs.

Pulleys

Pulleys are 4 1/2″ diameter fiberglass-impregnated nylon with a precision fit cable groove and 6203 double sealed roller bearings.

Weight Plates and Dampening

All Inflight Fitness selectorized equipment feature solid cast steel weight stack plates with a black finish. Self-aligning low friction sleeve bearings surround the guide rods on every weight stack plate. Weight plates are warranted against breakage for the lifetime of the machine. Heavy-duty rubber spacers are used under the weight stack to absorb shock and reduce noise.

Guide Rods

To ensure quiet operation and low friction movement, all machines are fitted with 1″ diameter floating chrome plated guide rods with rubber cushion plugs on each end.

Lanyard attached pins

All Inflight Fitness selectorized equipment feature weight stack pins that are attached with a coiled self-storing cord to prevent pin removal or loss.

Fasteners

All bolts meet ANSI B18.3 specifications. One-time use aircraft style center-locking nuts are used to ensure attach points remain secure.

Handgrips

Our handgrips are manufactured from nonabsorbent UV resistant closed cell PVC vinyl foam for comfort, safety and durability.
