VMO Lockouts
Accessory knee-extension work to strengthen the VMO and teach full leg lockout. Described as especially useful for fighters who tend to keep their knees soft. - Lock out the knee on every rep to target the VMO/teardrop muscle. - Do not stay soft in the knee; work full knee extension. - Cues used during the movement: sit back, drive, and spread/run the floor apart when coming up. Common mistakes: Keeping the knees soft and not locking out the legs.
