    Video = 838lb x 5 Leg Press @ 155lbs.

    Wanted to post up a video from today as title states 838lbs x 5. I am weighing in at 155lbs and this set is after 5 sets of squats and 2 sets on leg press.

    Any comments welcome.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you want a 90 degree with your legs. Like para? Your basically half squating if you were standing and not sitting. Your sitting position looks kinda awkward like to "v"Ed up and not layed back enough. Regardless your strong and grats man

    Good comments, so the back should be laid back more?

    I'm no expert man just seemed like your kinda kinked up. I think you need to really get that thing down on you more and I think it would be less awkward if you were like upright as much. Does it slid back or maybe recline a bit?

    No worries, Yes, it can recline some. There is a one up and one down. I use the up since it feels easier on my lower back.

    I noticed you look fairly tall to. My legs are 90 degrees before my knees are damn near hitting my chest so being taller might make it harder to. If it feels better on your back though than right on man. Do you squat at all? Numbers on that?

    Not sure if you're going for strength or hypertrophy, but I think if the latter, you could be going 2-4 inches deeper on that comfortably. Once the weight comes off the quads and hits your po-chain, that's the money. Strong lift though.

    Going for size vs. strength. I go pretty deep on squats and did a set of 5 of those prior to.

    After watching your 908 pound lifts, I believe you aren't going deep enough. Some people prefer to not go too far due to joint issues, however even so, it seems like you should dig a little deeper.

    i'd rather loose some of the weight op and get more reps with better form. Just my 2 cents. Nice work op.

    I would say ditch some weight and concentrate more on the form, I would call them half reps as they are no way deep enough.

    Thanks guys. I do go deeper on 8 and 10 total plates. For the weight I thought I went deep enough on this set but guess not. I have left knee issues but I doubt theses are half the distance I could go. My knees where almost to my chest and to much lower would make my butt come up.

    I notice that when I decrease the angle of the seat I get more hamstring activation but can't quite go as deep. When the angle of the seat is wide I feel more quad activation. This is due to the former putting the hip in flexion and causing a "pre-tension" on the hamstring (similar to the difference in effect of bicep vs brachialis in chinup vs pull up). It looks like you were using more hamstring to me in that video which is obviously great if you are training hamstings! Maybe play around with the angle of the chair and foot position (higher foot position enhances hamstring activation due to decreasing angle of the hip joint) and see if you feel anything different!
