How does the core get "challenged" in the leg press?

Silent Impact-
Any lift done properly involves the "core" muscles. Take for instance the bench press. Proper execution requires that your shoulders and hips are firmly on the bench with your back arched and abs tight. This is the core of your body. As you do a leg press, especially heavy ones, the core muscles come in to play for support and power as with any other primary lift. Concentrate on the feel or tightening of these muscles during your next set of leg presses and I guarantee that you will be able to handle more weight.
