Avoid arching the lower back or using body momentum to move the resistance. The standing single-leg curl primarily trains the hamstrings, with the calves assisting. Complete the planned repetitions on one side before switching legs, using the same setup, range, and volume on both sides.

HOW TO DO MACHINE STANDING SINGLE-LEG CURL

Adjust the supports so your knee aligns with the machine’s pivot and the moving pad rests on your lower calf just above the heel.
Position yourself securely, grip the handles, and brace.
Bend the knee to draw the heel toward the glute while keeping the thigh still and the hips stable.
Pause briefly, then lower the leg slowly until the knee is comfortably extended.
