  Tom Platz once said that one of his favorite things to do to help with definition was to rack a fairly light weigh on a bar and squat for ten or fifteeen minutes straight. Light weight and high reps work wonders for the legs sometimes.

Try down-shifting to 1000 lbs for the leg press.  Then you should be getting at least 300 reps per set.

it would be daft to build your training round super high reps,,,, a high rep finisher at the end of a leg workout does wonders tho... a good 20 to 30 reps on the hack squat etc...
