1. The correct way to train your calves on the inverted pedal machine

When using the inverted pedal machine, we first need to lean on the long board of the inverted pedal machine. At this time, our legs bend our knees forward so that our feet can rest on the baffle of the inverted pedal machine. There are many ways to place the feet. The standard one is to place them in the middle of the baffle. We can also choose to be in the middle or above or below. The distance between the two feet can be wide or narrow. Depending on the placement of your feet, the exercise effects will naturally be different. At this time, we choose the position of our feet. At this time, our legs push forward, which can straighten our legs. Then slowly recover the movement until our legs return to their natural relaxed state. Complete 30 leg kicks at one time.

2. Leg exercise method

Leg exercise is the most direct way for us to use the inverted pedal machine. At first, we lie on our backs on the inverted pedal machine. At this time, we bend our legs and knees so that our feet can rest on the baffle of the inverted pedal machine. At this time, we adjust our body condition to ensure that this posture is relatively comfortable. At this time, we take a deep breath and use strength to push our legs diagonally upward until our legs are straightened. Then we slowly retract the movement, adjust and start again. Mainly when we retract our legs, our buttocks are pulled upward, which can achieve the effect of butt training.

3. Single leg exercise method

This action requires us to lie on our side on the inverted pedal machine. At this time, our legs are stacked together, the lower leg is tightened, and the upper leg bends forward and presses the knee against the baffle of the inverted pedal machine. At this time, we use this leg to exert force with one leg, so that the reverse pedal machine can be kicked upwards. Until this leg is straightened, we start the action again, complete 20 times on one side, and then switch to the other side to complete the action. Single-leg exercise is more difficult and can provide better exercise effects.

4. What should you pay attention to when exercising on the inverted pedal machine

When we use the inverted pedal machine to exercise, we must pay attention to allowing our body to balance on the inverted pedal machine, keeping the body in a coordinated state, and completing the movements.During the process, our legs need to be straight and parallel, and cannot be bent or tilted. In addition, doing this action requires us to persist in exercising. It is best to stretch the legs before doing exercise.
