Well from your pics you do look good and the six packs are still visible. So that's a good sign. Well done!

Leg extensions are the bomb. For me, it's even better than squats and deadlifts cause i have a bad lower back. Probably the same thing with you since you are arching your back in your deadlift videos. A PT at FF advised me to deload after every deadlift rep instead of holding on to the barbell so that it is less stressful for the lower back.
My current leg extension max is 75kg so far, while for squats and deadlifts it's still a sissy 60kg. This post has been edited by yeeck: Jul 8 2008, 10:00 PM |

Not sure sp00ky coz different FF branches may have different equipment/brands/models. But I'm sure for me it's in kg coz if it's only 75lbs that would be about 34kg which i could lift easily with a single arm.

QUOTE(kege @ Jul 9 2008, 12:13 AM) I'm very weak at leg extensions. Maybe cause I always do them last in my leg workout. But so far, I feel front squats hit the quads the most among all the exercises I've tried including leg press machine, back squat and leg extension. It's been a day since last night's leg training and it's pretty painful for me to get off my chair Not sure when I injured it. My 2 free sessions PT suspected I injured my lower back when she assisted me in post-workout stretching.Btw, what happened to your lower back? did you injure it? If you can push so much weight on the leg extensions you should work on strengthening your core and lower back so you can do those big lifts and improve your overall body strength. Just my opinion edit: on deadlifts, i have bad form aka i don't realise that i'm rounding my back. i don't think it's because the weight is too heavy cause my form looks the same even though i'm using warm up weight. guess i'll have to really emphasize on chest out and arched back the next time. |
