Anything less will stimulate sub-maximal growth I suspect.

Growth comes from tearing muscle fibres the more muscle fibres u tear the more protein syntheses occurs. I love super setting rdls with weighted glute ham raise hyper extension pad thingy majigy...you will have DOMS for days.





Try this little beauty weighted!!

Thanks for putting this up Goosey - I had forgotten all about the akinetic squat machine. The old Nautilus machines were brilliant pieces of engineering.

Cool, I've used the duo-squat, I've used most squatting devices.

The duo-squat is by far the most intense, you can see coes knees almost end up behind his head, while the force is not placed on the hip.
At full extension the resistance is greatest, moving one leg at a time enables him to achieve full extension without placing load on the spine.
 
What I don't like Coe doing is locking at extension, if he maintained tension, he'd require less weight but it would be kinder to hip and knee.
 

I nearly tore my hamstring doing these once. I haven't gone back to them since (my hamstrings are so incredibly tight - I've finally started stretching everywhere, including the hams). Also, I have to admit that a gym bunny set up shop doing db rows 1 metre in front of me.. however, I don't think this contributed significantly to the injury ;p

For some reason, these kill my lower arms at high enough weights to stress my pecs, where the pec dec doesn't ... would definitely be a better exercise though imo if that wasn't a problem.

Interesting. I know that feel when the target muscles don't get worked because something else gives out first.
