Sissy squats primarily target the quadriceps and glutes. Adjust the leg cushion and foot support to comfortably secure your lower legs and feet.

• Stand on the foot plate with your heels lifted and shins pressed against the leg cushion.
• Keep your back straight and core engaged.
• Slowly lean back, allowing your knees to bend and move forward, lowering your body into a squat position.
• Push through your quads to return to the starting position.

4.2 Sit-ups

The machine can be used to support sit-ups, targeting abdominal muscles.

• Lie down with your feet secured under the foot support rollers.
• Place your hands behind your head or across your chest.
• Engage your core and lift your upper body towards your knees.
• Slowly lower back to the starting position.
