Bruising Leg Press


Next time you do legs I want you to give this one a try. This workout comes from a friend of mine in Las Vegas. I did this routine with him once and just about cried. You first want to stack a leg press with anywhere from 6-4 45 pound plates on each side depending on your leg strength and experience. Those who are strong and experienced lifters I would use 6, intermediate I would use 5, and everyone else 4. Keep in mind these are suggestions so try it out yourself and make your own adjustments. So with your first weight stacked go ahead and do 6 reps with a 6 second negative on the way down. After you finish 6 reps, lock up the press and remove 1 plate from each side and repeat the 6 reps for 6 second negative. Repeat this process of removing 1 plate per side and doing 6 reps until you have 2-1 plates left on each side. Good luck walking the next day!
