    Sets and Reps for Leg Extensions

    Trying to grow quads with squats and leg extensions. Squat routine is going great but leg extensions suck. I’m currently doing 8 working sets of 9 reps at 40 Kg for leg extensions but seem to have plateaued. Should I go heavier for less sets and reps or back off weight and up reps and sets?

    Bracing The Core. Whats your trick??

    Alright so we know bracing the core is about getting into a neutral spinal position, pushing the ribcage down through diaphragmic action (like your taking a shit and trying to snap it off at the same time by clenching the ass cheeks), and pretend someone is about to punch you in the guts. What...

(id done a set on the leg press jumped on the hammer for twenty reps, then the...

    Bands

    So i'm looking to add some band work to my training, I was going to just get one of the 6 packs from gymdirect. Is this the best option considering i've never used them before and will get a range of sizes, plus works out cheaper than getting 3 or so individual pairs. What colours/resistance do...

    SLDL technique

    I'd like to give stiff-leg deads a go. Where would I find solid info on form for that lift? Being trained is just not an option where I am: internet tutorials and shit like that is what I've got to go on. So they've gotta be good! :)
