Bodybuilding Leg Press

[Hoggerable]

"This is gonna work your legs". holy shit my mind is blown

[fastsnow]

Steroids.

[eacz12]

that machine squeaks so fucking bad

[champkind123]

is this clay matthews?

[TheCyoruk]

"pushing through my heels" 0:48 thumbs up!

[poopadoxlol]

@TheCyoruk You don't push through your heels on a leg press you fucking idiot

[ukmale164]

@poopadoxlol what do u push through then?

[sabreface10]

she takes steroids.

[artermixdml]

These video series are very good. I really like this trainer. She gets down to the point showing the viewers how the movement is performed without bs'ing too much like some others.

She also has fabulous legs.

On a side note ... I totally agree with the last comment. I have a video on youtube that goes against the traditional stereotype of the "objectified woman nude".

It got hardly any comment because viewers just don't know what t make of it.

[LRGHMN]

?????????????????????

[Daniiel1214]

Deeam ¡¡

[eliasmoney12]

wtf

[bronco200005]

So that's wat a tranny lukz lyk

[DimebagVision]

"use a spotter"

yeah right! I leg press 1,000lbs. What is my spotter gonna do when it's not my day and i can't lift that? "Don't worry! I'll save you!"

LOL!!!!!!!!!

[CRB115]

omggg hahaha

[barcode477]

fucking fagt go to hell

[unjusdorange]

There is so much gender based bullshit on Youtube, it's fucking insane. Some comments here suggest that your value as a human being is dependent on how well you match some stereotypes of male or female. This is a serious fucking problem for our socitey. People are getting beaten, raped, harrased everyday because of this. If anyone agrees with me you are can show some support by marking abusive comments with thumbs down. M, kay?

[yoyonukkah]

Hey bitch (or male dog), you're locking your legs. Fucking expertvillage, half their videos are flawed/incorrect technique.

[YEE941]

@yoyonukkah LOLOLOL

[TheTypicalGirl]

It's a girl on steroids. Ugh.

[ricky5fingers]

dude thats a girl!!

[QoolOli]

THAT IS A MAN!

[seanpaynedotnet]

Is that a man or a woman? Abomination.

[Manojvarughese]

i want the same lady performing kettlebell swing...treat to watch!!

[Manojvarughese]

wow...super woman

[rodeo179]

i have never dated body builder female..

but i do have curiosity... what can she bring to bed? hmmm

[thetward]

You shoud see Cara Head, she's not a bodybuilder but a powerlifter and she is gorgeous, & will probably slam you on your head!! But she' LOOK"S like a WOMAN!! CHECK HER OUT!!

[leroysexy]

Why's that man wearing makeup?

[casarezc]

fucken sasquash!!

[rmcknearny]

male or female?

[Tragedyking]

what a beefy bitch.

[AntonBarkland]

Am I the only one who goes down all the way?

[superpimp14x]

nope i do too, it feels wrong if i dont

[kcdesigns]

Me too Youtubes full of wussies (wimps).

Full range hold and press with out a lock out unless your just goosed.

[Whiteozzy]

your knees get really messed up if you go down all the way..

[SMACKTARDS]

if you have bitch knees xD

lower the weight then

[SMACKTARDS]

bunch of bitches

[oldflatus]

KaseyAkira sez, "Lunches" are superior to squats? Lunch is superior to ANY exercise, especially a Free one....and Many Thanks for sharing your know-how!

[bemmy69]

i love a woman on the juice bet her anal is very strong

[KaseyAkira]

As far as spotting you on the leg press, if you load it up completely, its impossible. If you dont load it up completely, you can just press your hands on your knees when you need help. Either way, a spotter for a leg press seems kind of silly.

[Smoothanna]

Remember, Slow and Controled...She should have taken her own advice years ago. Maybe she wouldn't look like a tranny and sound like one as well.

[KaseyAkira]

1) Thanks. I cant figure out how to use a leg press on my own. I mean its so complicated - you sit down and push the platform up with your feet. I TOTALLY needed a video to explain that.

2) There is almost never a time to use leg press if you can do squats and deadlifts.

3) Its not only unnecessary, but also impossible for someone to spot you on this exercise.

[wes89horns]

2) So by extraction, there is always a time to do leg presses if you can't do squats or deadlifts. It also ensures better form than doing a squat, deadlifts won't work your quads like a leg press will.

3) Impossible? Well, only if you load it up completely, otherwise you can have someone on the side.

[KaseyAkira]

A leg press takes you through a fixed range of motion. All exercises that do this lead to incorrect development. There's a reason why someone can leg press 1,000 pounds but cant squat 90 pounds. If you are physically capable of doing squats or deadlifts, there is almost never a time when you should do leg presses. There simply are no advantages.

[wes89horns]

If by "incorrect development" you mean not developing stabilizer muscles proportionately then squats and deadlifts are just as guilty, as is *any* single exercise. Freeweight or not.

[wes89horns]

(cont.) And the reason a person can leg press "1,000 pounds" but only squat "90 lbs" (as exaggerated as that is) is because you're core isn't as involved so you don't have the same amount of pressure. Your legs can handle a whole lot more weight than your core can.

[wes89horns]

(cont.)This is what makes squats and deadlifts such great exercises, because of how many muscle groups they use (hence the common term "Compound Exercise"), but it's not the only nor necessarily the best way to work out your legs. Technically, a lunge is far superior to both squats and deadlifts since they recruit the entire leg much more adequately.

[goose1077]

I don't think I'd feel very balanced doing lunges with weight on my sholders. Maybe you get used to it in time. I mostly squat. I have my own rack at home.

[KaseyAkira]

Its better to do squats. Lunches are not superior to squats in any way whatsoever, but when someone says that, and earlier says "squats and deadlifts dont develop stabilizers, no exercise does" - its really not worth arguing further. Its like arguing that the sky is purple.

But do stick to your squats.

[goose1077]

If not stabilizers, you do develope something in your brain to control your muscles better. I think I will stick with the squats anyway.  I don't want to get off balance--that's a great way to hurt your back.

[KaseyAkira]

The thing you develop in your brain to do lunges better is called "coordination".

Lets say you walk a balance beam and fall off. Why is that? Was it your stabilizers, or the fact that you've never walked a balance beam? If you walk it over and over, your stabilizers will not develop - but your coordination will. This is what develops at the bottom of a lunge movement. And you should stick to squats.

[wes89horns]

Now children, follow along and try to keep up. I didn't say they don't develop stabilizers, I said they don't develop proportionately. If the only leg exercise you do is a squat or a deadlift then yes, your sky is purple. and I guess if you get deeper into lifting (not talking stats, talking about knowledge) then you'll understand why lunges (not "lunches") work the legs more completely than squats.

[KaseyAkira]

Science has proved that squats and deadlifts are all you need, since they work so many stabilizers, and due to the laws of adaptation, the weakest chain in the link is strengthened the most, so that next time another chain will be strengthened. Everything we know about biology and kinesiology states this. Volumes of research by Dr Hatfield, Dr Verkoshansky, and others have all confirmed this. Squats do develop proportionately.

[wes89horns]

wow, only took 8 hours for that response, cuz I *know* you had Hatfield and Verkoshansky on the top of your head. The reality is that you get a better extension and RoM with the lunge. True or False? A better range of motion leads to more muscle fibers being recruited. A more complete leg exercise.

[KaseyAkira]

Actually, I was sleeping. Sorry for not getting up in the middle of the night and responding.

The bottom of a squat is comparable in ROM to a lunge.

[dino4069]

yeah i reckon dead lifts are the best leg ex. Is this chick Ms Balls from scary movie 1
