Hammer Strength Plate-Loaded Iso-Lateral Leg Curl

What makes the prone leg curl different than the Kneeling Leg Curl?

The Prone Leg Curl positions the user face down for a stable, controlled movement that isolates the hamstrings with consistent tension—ideal for building strength and refining muscle balance. In contrast, the Kneeling Leg Curl introduces a more dynamic range of motion, engaging stabilizers like the glutes and lower back. Both are effective, but the prone version is designed for exercisers focused on strict form and more muscle isolation.

Can I train one leg at a time?

Yes, the Hammer Strength Iso-Lateral design allows for a single leg hamstring curl movement, ensuring balanced strength and symmetrical development. 

Is the leg curl machine suitable for a variety of body sizes?

Yes, the leg curl machine’s design adapts to users of various sizes, ensuring proper alignment and comfort during a workout. 

How does the leg curl machine reduce back strain during exercise?

The angled pads peak at the hips to minimize stress on the lower back by avoiding hyperextension often associated with prone leg curls.
