Single Leg Press

[gymtime]

Does anyone do these? Are they worth doing?

I love em. I think they take more out of you than the 2 leg version. I like the isolation.

that or single leg squats or step ups. great for knee and ankle stability.

I like doing them using the hammer strength leg press.Haven't done them in awhile, but my leg mass and strength went up fast.

dont bother

you'll be able to use more weight using two legs [for example, max could be 100k with one leg, but 220k with two.]

Obviously you're gonna want to use the method that puts you in the strongest position for max lift.

I like using them at the end of my quad work

as you can see, it depends on your goal. if you are chasing a number and dont see the value of training each leg individually to improve your overall performance...then you wont do them.

i'd challenge anyone to strengthen each leg individually, increase stability and neuromuscular efficiency and then say....

"dont bother"

we spend 50% of our time on one leg or another when walking. unless you guys go bounding round with your feet tied together.... or eat, sleep and shit with your feet planted in the squat rack.
lol.


but to each his own.
