Discussion
can we have a link, picture or any video towards an aproximative model?
hi everyone, i am new here, i haves some questions about the loads which will be applied on the legs, do we have to provide place for discs ,mass or something else?
Dear client. One question: are we allowed to add 2 another metal elements, 2 feet each? In that way, my design will functional
Hey, Fabrizio. Does the 6 ft length a fixed dimension, or is it a maximum?
Sorry for the late discussion, I just found out about this contest.
Hey, so basically the mechanism for the machine is the reverse of the leg curl mechanism (legs swing from back to front, while leg curl is from front to back?)
Hey are you familiar with Consumer Product Safety Commission safety standards for fitness equipment? If you are selling this product in the US it may be important to know before making a decision.
It&
;s not clear what you want your design to do. It is preferable if you tell us your wishlist of leg exercises you want to do with this machine and which muscles you want to develop with this machine. Then we, designers, will create one for you. You review each of our designs and provide feedback. A random Designer will eventually create a functional exercise machine that meet you expectations. You can then follow up with that designer, informing him or her of any upgrades or modifications you would like to make to his or her design.

Hi,
It would help a lot if you attached some inspiration images and video links with people performing the proposed exercise.
It is a project that requires a good analysis and will take a long time to execute, and we would like to be sure that we are starting with a project that is on the right track.

I HAVE THOUGHT OF A DESIGN WHICH IS SHOWN IN THESE DRAWING. IN WHICH I MENTIONED ABOUT THE LEG PART ON WHICHI WILL DESIGN. IF YOU AGREE ABOUT THIS PART, IWOLD DO BETTER TODESIGN MY NEXT ONE.
Hi Marka1, this will be a standing leg extension machine. The user will be mostly vertical on the machine with one leg bent at the knee, with his foot above a lever so that he can extend the lever on a downward rotational axis to work the quadricep muscle.
Hello, I will be drafting a design.
Based on the side view sketch, isn&
;t this more of a standing leg curl machine than a standing leg extension machine?
I look forward to submitting a concept.

Looking forward to it GalaxyRobotics. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Hello, I will be drafting a design. I am excited to work with you!
Hi Michael, you are correct with all your analyses, except for the machine resembling a cross country skiing motion. The motion is this. Standing leg extension of the quad. It will be accomplished by bending one leg, while standing up. That leg will have a foot roller in on the toe of the shoe and two shin pads sandwiching the shin. At this point, the individual will extend/ push the lever forward do that the leg is in a fully straight position at the climax of the movement. Think of the leg swinging from a bent position to a straight position.

Chaniago, yes that is correct. Square not circular.

Let me see if I understand what you are asking for; a standing exercise machine that is primarily designed for working the extensor muscle groups of the leg while supporting the upper body in a semi upright position. Is this correct? If so you describing something similar to a device that would mimic cross country skiing motion? Am I on the right track for what you are looking for?
