The leg extension exercise primarily targets the quadriceps muscle group in the front of the thigh.
The lateral raise exercise primarily targets the deltoid muscle in the shoulder.
The exercise "lateral raises" primarily targets the deltoid muscle, which is located in the shoulder.
The preacher curl exercise primarily targets the biceps muscle group.
The tricep pushdown exercise primarily targets the triceps muscle group.
The exercise "skull crushers" primarily targets the triceps muscle in the back of the upper arm.
The exercise "around the world" primarily targets the deltoid muscles in the shoulders.
The exercise "cross body hammer curls" primarily targets the biceps muscle group.
The side plank exercise primarily targets the obliques, which are the muscles on the sides of the abdomen.
The exercise "lat raises" primarily targets the latissimus dorsi muscle, which is located in the back and helps with shoulder and arm movements.
The main difference between a sissy squat and a leg extension exercise is the muscle groups they target. Sissy squats primarily work the quadriceps and engage the core for stability, while leg extensions isolate the quadriceps without engaging other muscle groups as much. Additionally, sissy squats require more balance and coordination compared to leg extensions.
The primary muscle intended for exercise.
Lateral raises primarily target the deltoid muscle, specifically the lateral head of the deltoid.
