So Friday is basically leg day for me.

I do
>squats 5x8 at 225
>hammer strength leg extensions, 5x10 with 45 on each leg
>leg presses, 5x8 at 450
>calf raises 4x8 with the whole stack however much that is (140 I believe)

My question is, are leg presses really useless? Some chad motherfucker came up to me today and told me they were, and I should "just do squats", even after I told him I just finished a ton of squatting.

Should I replace it with another exercise? I feel like its helped my squat quite a bit and I only do legs once a week, and they hit my quads pretty hard, but I don't know of anything better.

How do you get out of this once you are in? Do you have to kick it up really hard and then get out before it comes crashing down?
>>
>>38648610
for that specific picture, yeah I'd imagine.

but on normal ones, you just move the stops and they hold the weight
>>
>>38648436
Why not just do a full body 3 times a week and not a dumb split if you are a beginner?
>>
>>38648713
its not really a split I guess

its a p/p/l routine

push pull legs

I've made great gains, but I'm just curious if there is a better alternative to leg presses
>>
>>38648713
if hes squatting I'm assuming he is benching and dl'ing.

doing all 3 on the same day is idiotic.
>>
Front Squatting
Romanian Deadlift

Fuck full body, I made gains doing ppl and some fags told me to hop on a beginner program, I just got fatter and my squat went up like 30 pounds. If you wanna look good just stick to your split

Leg press isn't bad if your goal is just hypertrophy, but like anon said you're still a beginner and will get best gains by doing squats with more frequency.

If you want to build a bigger squat, you could do paused squat or front squat for more specificity of training. Or you could just do full body 3-4 times a week, not SS since you're probably near the end of your true novice stage but texas method or madcows or something.

How long before i an hero?


>bench lmao 140 lbs
>diddy lmao 200 lbs

>>38648833
Is this just your personal opinion? Cause for a beginner it's fine. Hell, I've made it to 455 DL 365 squat 275 bench and 185 Standing Barbell Overhead ThePress by doing a template just like SS and I'm perfectly fine.
