Squat Rack and Leg Extension Machine

The power rack is an asset for any serious gym. It acts as a safety net when training. Adjustable bars can be set to various levels to prevent injury when performing such exercsies as squats or shoulder shrugs.

Exercises Using Power Rack:

Squats to work the quadriceps,
Barbell Shrugs to isolate the trapezius muscles,
Incline, decline, and flat bench press to develop the pectoral muscles of the chest.
Front and behind chins to work the biceps and latissimus dorsi muscles.

Squats are considered to be the best exercise to stimulate growth and strength in the legs. Squats strongly stress quads, lower-back muscles, and the buttocks. The hamstrings, upper back, and abs act as stabilizers with this exercise. Squats

Leg Extensions Leg extensions are a great isolation exercise for the quadriceps muscles. The extension machine provides a full range of motion with little assistance from other stabilizing muscles.
