Overview
The seated leg press is a machine-based exercise that targets the quads, glutes, and hamstrings. It is similar in many ways to larger leg press machines, but often utilizes a selectorized weight stack rather than plate loading. Leg press variations are often used as an accessory for squats or deadlifts, but can also be the main lower-body movement in a workout. This movement is often performed for moderate to high reps, such as 8-12 reps per set or more.

Variations
Variations of fitness exercises refer to different ways of performing a specific exercise or movement to target various muscle groups, intensities, or goals. These variations aim to challenge the body differently, prevent plateaus, and cater to individuals with varying fitness levels.
Alternatives
Alternative exercises in fitness refer to different movements or activities that target similar muscle groups or serve the same training purpose as the primary exercise. These alternative exercises can be used as substitutes when the original exercise is unavailable or challenging to perform due to various reasons such as equipment limitations, injuries, or personal preferences.
