1000 x 8 reps Leg Press, 545 x 15 reps (Intro on leg press)

This is a short intro on how to do a leg press, a more detailed video will be made later.

First Set:

1000 pounds x 8 reps

Second Set:

545 pounds x 15 reps

Third Set:

135 pounds x 50 reps

I barely just hit 90 degrees, well most the trainers there tell me I get deep enough, I actually ask them sometimes if i go deep enough and they always tell me I do.

When doing a leg press bring your legs down into they are 90 degrees or basically and L shape.

For another good example of leg press form here is a video from bodybuilding.com:

    I don't lock out, I just almost lock out, I keep a slight bend in my legs when I almost lockout.

    i really dont leg press all that often but i was told by several of my trainers that locking your knees out at that kind of weight can end up in popping a cartlidge or breaking something. Think about it, 1000 pounds pushing back on your knees while they are locked? i dont know how true that is just giving you a heads up if that is true.

    Almost 90 degrees, pretty damn close. Not bad, but you need a spotter (or two)
