I've just recently started weight training (Aug 2012) and have a brand new ACL and less shredded cartilage in my knee (2010) so leg days tend to scare me a bit. I wear my brace whenever I do any sort of pushing with my legs, unfortunately it's too big and bulky to use while doing extensions or curls. In any case, leg press, and squats make me nervous, but I do them all the same, upping my weight regularly seeing what my legs can handle.
Today I was feeling braver than I have in the last few weeks and banged out some new PRs.
Leg press 410lbs x20 (2 sets into drop sets thanks to Kris Gethin's 12wk trainer)
Barbell Squat 185 x12 (2 sets)
I'm sure I could do more weight, but I'm upping these lifts slowly and conservatively so as to put my knee at as little risk as possible while still getting a good burn.
At the beginning of Aug I was 289lbs and probably over 35% BF. Now down to 242lbs, and around 22-23% BF. Still lots more work to do, but today I feel good.

previous deadlift max of 315, warmed up, went for 320...got 3 reps easy...said screw it, put on 20 more pounds, pulled 340. Tried 350 and got it to knee height then failed, I think I could get it fresh though

Really happy with this one. Big PR. Push press 225x5 behind the neck. Next is 275x1 and then 300x1. 300 push press @ 185 BW has been a goal for a long time, but the push press is driven up by the squat, and you'll probably need an ATG oly squat of around 500+ to push press 300. Not there yet, but I will be.
