Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22063 posts	Any vague use for a strength trainer or (as I suspect) just s**te?

woefully weak Member 4748, 1506 posts SQ 157, BP 133, DL 260 550.0 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq	I quite like the way they feel. Not sure what they achieve, if anything

Enjoys his parents fully stocked fridge. Member 3476, 868 posts SQ 170, BP 136, DL 217.5 523.5 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq	Bill Starr recommended them in Strongest Shall Survive, along with hamstring curls, but can't remember the reasoning and lost the book!

Member 3241, 2043 posts SQ 1, BP 192, DL 255 448.0 kgs @ 136kgs UnEq	I do them to warm up the knees and get blood into the thighs etc... Then smash them once I've got the front squats and leg presses out of the way Just feels good and you know you want the pump

as crimson as my last victims underclothing..... Member 899, 11332 posts SQ 180, BP 132.5, DL 190 502.5 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq	Underdeveloped quads. They're ace for them. My fronties were crawling slow as f**k till I used them, then they were just crawling.

Sports an extremely muscular arse. Member 38, 6253 posts	Unless you're going very slow with light weight for the burn, they're going to be very stressful on the knees. Do it for the pump or not at all. Don't go heavy.

Do it for the pump or not at all. Don't go heavy. Interestingly, back when I did them, I never found this - perhaps the design of the machine may be a factor?

Tom's CNS is better than steroids Member 2886, 2973 posts SQ 190, BP 122.5, DL 210 522.5 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq	I've seen videos of Ed Coan saying he did them weekly. Whether he was given money/ a script by BodybuildHugeQuadsCreatineFreeProMagazine I'm not sure.

Mask it or Casket !! Member 4600, 8166 posts SQ 240, BP 162.5, DL 255 657.5 kgs @ 90.5kgs UnEq	I found that Leg extensions are good for knee recovery and i like the way the bought out my eyes... but way way way a poor substitute for sissy or front squats.

Help me rescue my Insulina. Member 5366, 1090 posts	I only ever do them light for reps. The only exercise that has ever pissed off my knees.
