I felt like breaking my workout up for legs would be beneficial as ive never attempted it.
Stevesmi & Mobster mentioned shin work on a recent evolution podcast, it got me thinking i do a tiny amount of work for shins, what if i tried to isolate and do more for them.
Anything to help overall leg development is a win for myself, a light bulb went off, i was looking at the laying hamstring curl machine and bingo, i said to myself what if i reverse the movement and instead of laying chest down heels hooked under, what if i lay down and hook the front of my foot under right behind my toes and pull them backwards toward me.
The idea paid off and it worked excellent for a shin movement, pump and burn was great. Also experimented putting a 20lb dumbbell behind the toes and flexing the toes upwards, also worked great.

In the photos i tried best i could to show the movement and position i am in, with the pad having a downward sloping angle when i lay down it instantly puts tension on my shines and i do a reverse hamstring curl for my shines, worked out great, excellent pump.
