Adjust the machine so the pad sits just above your heels, around the lower calf, and lie face down on the bench.
Ensure your hips remain in contact with the bench, with your knees aligned with the pivot point of the machine.
Grip the handles to stabilise your upper body, keeping your core lightly braced.
Slowly bend your knees, drawing your heels up towards your buttocks in a smooth controlled movement — aim to fully engage your hamstrings without jerking.
Lower the weight back down with control, resisting gravity to maintain tension.
Complete repetitions as prescribed by your physiotherapist.
