hey going down a inch or two with a 1000 pounds don't mean you really pressed it lol you need to go alot lower than 1-2 inches

yeah i agree next time take a pic it will back you up.

What kinda leg press? Some are heavier than others.
How heavy are you? What do u squat?


1000 is good weight.

I know squats are better, but...

Just about a year ago, I received a pretty nasty hernia (which I had repaired and the recuperating time was painfull as hell). It was mostly due to inexperience and inproper form. None-the-less, I still feel the pressure when I do squats in that area, and it is a mental block too. When I do leg press, it takes a little of the pressure away. I am slowly building my strength in my legs by doing the presses, which is giving me convidence back to do squats. Basically, I am transitioning back into do squats, by hitting the leg press hard. It is working but it just takes time. That damn hernia is something I never want to go thru again!!!!!!!!

DMSO,
when you run out of room for more plates, are you gonna add a girl sitting on top of the platform for more lbs?
it's fun to be that gal!

hehe If she was wearing a skirt while sitting on the rack it would definately be cool, although i've never done the leg press with a Boner I'm CURIOUS!

Honestly though I just started takin' some winny for a show and I can't go that heavy on the leg press any more cuz it KILLS my knees, even with the wraps. 11 plates is my limit and I'm still snappin' cracklin' and poppin when i get off of it.Oh well it's all good when you're on the gear!

I know how it feels not to be able to do an exercise that is useful. I slipped on snow and fell on my ass 10 months ago. My tailbone still bothers me whenever I squat. So I too had to find alternatives. I think it affect me more mentally. Hopefully I'll be able to squat pain free in a couple of months.

Good luck with your training!

BULLSHIT

I'm not to sure that I believe that shit! Your telling me that you jumped up 230 lbs. in just 1 week. C'mon, I don't care who you are you did not jump up that much weight in 1 fucking week.
