lol.
i have tried this exercise but it seems if your legs are at a more than 90 degrees you dont get full stretch and feel for the weight. i go a little below 90 degrees and i feel i get a better leg workout. true why would you do squats when you can do this and still get good functional strength.
puma:)
I agree. If you have bad knees due to genetics, ie arthritis, why the hell would you go with a riskier exercise?
seriously? How bout 2 and half hours once a week?
you know whats crazy, putting squats and leg press into the same workout along with other leg exercises. Thats called a quad routine.

I’m assuming people would take his nutritional guidance lightly if he used steroids.
does it matter its cool if its natural but if you big your big like me im just big but now im taking protein and it helps a lot
3 hrs? major recipe for disaster (overtraining)… if u wanna up ur size and mass (and resistance), u gotta cut down on ur workout time regardless of the number of days u train…
i see most people doing their squats less than quarter of a proper form… that makes them just as pussy…
it is called variation… i agree that squats are the best exercise, but leg press does concentrate and does its job focusing on quads and less torture for your back (if done in the most proper form)… in a whole month, i do squats, leg press, front squat and back to squat with perfect form and highest resistance…try to vary ur workouts or ur muscles won’t cooperate…
im not saying the machine isnt good, but squats are better
??? so why does this machine exists?
leg press is worse for ur knees, high squats are only bad for ur knees
i have 1 question does this guy take supplements orr is he natural
Well, at leg presses the danger of damaging your knees is not so high.
These are pounds not kilos i think.
Folks dont Fokus on the weigth, wer not on a D*** Comparison here. Take a weith that allows you to do the Exercise right and withing your recommended reps.
Oh and Yes Squads are more effectiv, but:
a) They are harder to do, so the press is good for a Beginner
b) you should change your exercises all 4-8 Weeks so your Muscles cannot adapt to easy.
I’m 14yr old and do 250kg 3×15
i used to love this exercise, but then and hurt my knees wrestling and now i cant do it…
VNprince is right. Squats are far more effective than leg presses. It’s alot harder to… Only pussies do leg presses lol.
errrr no Leg press is not for pussy its for ur legs
Leg Press is for pussy. Do Barbell Squat.
