well leg press is being mentioned repeatedly as a replacement for the squat due to it hitting the quads harder, personally I've found that squatting more weight on the bar hits the quads harder.

At the moment I do use single leg press as my main test, because it is better placed than squats to help me measure whether difference in leg strength between left and right leg is narrowing.
yes, Meares (OG cyclist and champion) is said to do a 235kg single leg press, although not sure of depth given her squats are not real deep. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDbVW_kRPJs
I did 7x112.5kg single leg press last week, so need to get this up a lot by end of year. My left leg is much weaker than right leg at moment (perhaps by 30%).
Meares (70kg bw) has also done 80kg power clean, and 130kg dead lift.

silverback is definitely someone people should be listening to... not dismissing.
kudo's to you for your contributions, regardless of the hate and mis-information people arguing.

Well I've seen some other fat guys who literally could not get to paralell in the squat, so for those types of people I guess. I'm not totally against leg press, I just don't use it for my training.
