Description
The Bio-Arc Leg Curl (BA-708) is part of TuffStuff’s most innovative commercial strength series. With each repetition, the user’s entire body moves along a linear arc trajectory to optimize muscle recruitment. As a result, the Bio-Arc Leg Curl allows for a full range of motion and greater muscle contraction at full curl (outperforming traditional fixed position equipment).
Additionally, the Bio-Arc Leg Curl maintains hip angle/pelvic tilt to optimize full contraction of the hamstring muscles, while limiting joint stress. Please note: includes 200 lbs. weight stack, the weight lifted is the approximate combined user’s weight and weight selected (see Weight Guide label).

TUFFSTUFF BIO-ARC RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
TuffStuff is proud to introduce the Bio-Arc strength series, the first resistance machines to incorporate multi-planar movement of each machine’s seat, along a linear arc trajectory. The seat movement allows the user to move along the arc path in conjunction with the machine, helping to maintain more optimal muscle length and improving the force of contraction and training stimulus.
Three years in the making, from concepts and engineering prototypes, to testing and countless refinements. Each Bio-Arc machine was tested by an independent exercise consulting company. Pilot research studies combining joint positioning – using goniometry testing, along with muscle recruitment and activity measurements – through electromyographic (EMG) testing. Each machine was tested to determine the optimal dimensions for final production. Every detail was measured, and design modifications were executed to exact specifications and re-tested. The end result is our patented Bio-Arc Technology that allows full body linear arc trajectory motion during exercise. Learn more >
