    Not sure of the first, sounds like some sort of glute (ass) machine, can't say I've seen one.

    Second is a leg press, for working the legs, mostly quads (front part of thigh).

    First one may be a CALF-RAISE machine? :confused:

    Maybe she's using whatever machine it is backwards!

    2nd one is a leg press as was mentioned.

    I really have no clue what number one is :confused:
