      Can you do it barefoot?

      You don’t want to use flat shoes for quad exercises

      Hard to know. If you are worried and in pain I would recommend talking to a physician.

    I see most people doing leg press laying the seat back. What is the difference between laying the seat back vs what you show in the video?

      Hi Kelly, the back support isn’t usually adjustable in most machines. A difference might be the type of machine pin loaded machines like this one are more upright whereas a plate loaded machine is at a 45 degree angle. It all really depends on the model of machine. Hope that helps.
