Sit on the Leg Press Machine and firmly place your feet shoulder width apart on the platform. Unlock the racking system that holds the sliding sled in place. Slowly lower down by flexing the legs, keeping the knees from pointing inward and your hells secure as you press. Lower down until you start to feel you butt start to come off of the seat. Firmly press evenly upward until the legs straighten.
Tips
Do not lower down to where your back or your butt comes off of the seat. Do not lock your legs/knees out straight when you press back up. Always keep tension to the leg muscles by not locking out your legs. Grasp firmly on the hand rails if the machines provides them for you. Avoid pushing your knees straight as a "self spot" to help get the weight back up. If this occurs you must lower the weight.
