Leg Press cues/tips to get the most out of your quads⤵️
-
4.5pps + 5inch bands x9
3pps + 5inch bands 4x4 cluster
-
Firstly you want to place your feet as low as possible without your heels coming up during the rep, then get as much range of motion as possible to allow for more knee flexion = challenging the quads in the lengthened range.
-
Control the eccentric portion of the rep as much as you can (try to count 2-3 seconds) then drive up hard through the heels.
-
Get as much air in as you can before each rep, pull yourself down into the seat for stability (use chalk or straps if it helps) and go close/or to failure.
-
Purpose of the band? To pretty much manipulate the resistance profile, for example the leg press is usually harder at the bottom, and gets easier towards the top. Adding the band takes out the ‘easier’ portion to create a challenge through the whole rep.
-
You also need a vein bursting out of your neck for max hypertrophy🔑
-
5 plates next week📈
