I don't have the leg press machine, so what is a good replacement/alternative to the exercise (not Squats, I already incorporate them).
I have a squat rack and barbell accessible.
Thanks in advance!

What's the best alternative exercise for LEG PRESS without the leg press machine?
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far?

I don't have a smith-type rack.Originally Posted by PowerTricks
It's a multi-peg rack.
The laying down and balancing a barbell on the arches of my feet aren't really an option either....funny...but not an option.Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far?

I was going to suggest setting up a bench in the multi peg rack so you can rack/de-rack the weights with spotters if you had but yeah it's pretty dangerous lol.Originally Posted by KASR5277

Try barbell lunges? I think the balancing and individual work makes it different enough from a squat to incorporate. Plus it seems to bring out the details in my legs.
edit- barbell hack squats are fun too

Front or hack squats.
Bodybuilding is 60% training and 50% diet. Yes that adds up to 110%, because that's what you should be giving it. Change the inside, and the physique will follow.
