What is the springload and reps for Pelvic Stabilization #1 Leg Press I?

• A. 3.5-4.5 springs; 10-15 reps.
• B. 2-3 springs; 5-8 reps.
• C. 4-6 springs; 20 reps.
• D. 1-2 springs; 25 reps.

Answer: (A)

For this Pelvic Stabilization move, the goal is to train steady pelvic and spine control while the legs press, so the resistance should challenge the stabilizers without overwhelming technique. A mid-range spring load provides just enough resistance to feel the pelvic and deep core muscles engage to keep the pelvis from tipping or twisting as you press. If the load is too light, the stabilizers don’t get enough input to reinforce proper alignment and form can drift. If the load is too heavy, maintaining neutral pelvis and controlled movement becomes tough, leading to compensations and poor technique. Pairing that mid-range resistance with a moderate rep count—ten to fifteen—gives you enough repetitions to reinforce stable motor patterns and endurance in the stabilizers without fatiguing you to the point where form breaks down. This combination supports consistent, precise movement and safe progression as you improve. So the best choice is the mid-range spring load with a moderate number of reps: 3.5-4.5 springs and 10-15 reps.
