This week on the Exercise Is Health podcast, Julie and Charlie discuss one of the more controversial exercise machines – the leg press – and dive into why you should be using it. From the belief that the leg press is “not functional” to the idea that using it is a complete waste of time, they confront these stigmas head on and explain why not only is it an extremely valuable piece of equipment, but it is one that you should strongly consider including in your workouts. Check out all of the details in this week’s episode!
