Nick Walker puts the leg press to work

SportLocation Fitness Desk · 12 Sept 2026

Nick Walker is shown grinding through a seated leg press set, with the emphasis on controlled drive and a hard finish at the top of the rep.

Nick Walker spends this clip on the leg press, and the message is blunt: lower-body work first, everything else later.

The set is built around a steady push through the sled, with Walker keeping his back anchored and his legs doing the heavy lifting. That matters because the machine takes the balance out of the equation and leaves the rep to pure force and control.

There is a brief pause in the sequence before he drives again, which gives the set its shape rather than turning it into a rushed blur of movement. The final extension is the cleanest point in the clip, with both legs pressing out against the load and the machine fully loaded beside him.

It is a straightforward gym moment, but the detail is in the repetition: brace, press, reset, press again. Walker finishes where the work is most obvious, with the sled still under tension and his legs locked into the machine.
