(there are two, the ones I'm assuming you are refering to are the rectus femoris or superficial leg quad) are not "taken out" as you suggested.

I tried using the method you did, whereby you let the pads run along your calves until your feet are flat.

@aazan10 From Pavel: You are not tensing your glutes hard enough.

Bottom line: you cannot flex your glutes too tight.
