Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a leg extension machine, and more particularly to a leg extension machine that allows a user to lift a weight by lifting a lever connected to the weight while remaining seated, and that can be used to accommodate not only the length of a user's legs but also the thickness of their legs. [Background technology]

[0002] Recently, due to the boom in self-management and obesity prevention and adult disease prevention, most people, regardless of age or gender, are enjoying a variety of exercises. The types of exercises are extremely diverse, and many people nowadays are signing up to sports gyms to exercise.

[0003] Many people go to gyms because they have a wide variety of exercise equipment and can adjust the weight load of muscle training to suit their physical condition and exercise volume. Another advantage of gyms is that they allow you to exercise regardless of the season, weather, or time.

[0004] Generally, exercise at a sports gym is broadly divided into aerobic exercise and equipment exercise, and is further divided into upper body muscle training, lower body muscle training, abdominal muscle training, etc. depending on the purpose of the exercise.

[0005] Among these, typical exercise equipment for training lower body muscles includes a leg curl machine, a leg extension machine, and an aerial walking machine.

[0006] Existing leg extension machines are inconvenient to use because they only accommodate the length of the user's legs by adjusting the position of the seating part and do not take into account various thigh thicknesses.

[0007] Therefore, research is needed into a leg extension machine that can be used to accommodate not only the length of a user's legs but also the thickness of their legs. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
