Quadriceps Exercises with Cable Machine
The quadriceps (quads) are a group of four muscles on the front of the thigh. They allow your knee to straighten and provide stability when standing. Your quads are the most important muscle group for maintaining the ability to stand and to walk independently.
It is also believed that arthritis pain can be relieved by strengthening the quadriceps muscles which takes pressure off the knees.
The cable machine is a piece of equipment used in weight training or functional training. A wide variety of exercises can be performed using the apparatus.
