She left a detailed post in her log, replying to my little happenings with the extra padding on my back side. May wanna ask her for specifics. Usually when the weight is too heavy I can feel either my back arch or pelvis tilt up, so I lower the weight and make sure my back does not move from the pad. If you ever see single leg presses in my log that's why, Ill work both individually usually since I have imbalance issues, the LP seems to aggravate it more than sqauting but my issue is in the hips, not the back.jpt said:

gotcha!! well i have imbalances as well...my right leg def has more muscle then my left from my knee surgeries...it's not too noticeble but of course i notice it. i've always though if i just kept trainign them they would eventually even up...hasn't been the case. think i just do them unilaterally?
That looks like an instrument of torture.jpt said:yesterday's training
legs
squat machine with back support 80x20, 100x20, 120x15, 140x12.
here is what the machine looks like....
leg presses 180x20, 260x15, 330x12 i put my feet at the top of the platform to get my hams involved more but it just ends up hurting my back...tre/bunz- i noticed that my pelvis moves fwrd as well...not sure what i should do here. don't want to use the lower platform bc my quads are getting enough work for them to grow. my leg curl machine at my gym blows goats that's why i use the top platform here..suggestions?
leg curl machine 4x20,15,12,8
leg extensions 3x12,10,8
calves 3x15 on leg press
5 minutes on the elliptical
You can try that and see if it works for you, just make sure the weight is equal. I can totally feel one side overpowering sometimes so I have to correct myself or I decide to train them sep.jpt said:

just my 2cents
I do mine seperate because in keeps my back down and my left leg was considerably stronger than my right and I notice a huge difference now. I always use the weight that my right leg can handle and now they are damn near even! I do it for leg curls as well.
