Please show me one former Mr O who has never done Leg Extentions

No shit ... but this doesn't say anything about their worth, overall.

Do you think tricep extensions are useless too?

They are the upper body version of leg extension after all.

Why do these guys need to be trained by Charles glass?? At this point in dexters career what difference does it make? Training ain't rocket science. Look at Dorian, Ronnie even branch, no need for glass ::)

Then explain it to me. Dex has been winning in the past without this so called guru. What can glass offer at this time that dex doesn't already know. Not that complicated, sorry to insult your "sport" ::)

Btw, hi Charles!

Mostly, yes (definitely the kickback variety). After 26 years training, I wish I could cancel all the wasted time doing such nonsense. Some type of extension using a more pragmatic powerlifting-useful multi-joint effort, sure, but the isolated kind? Crap. Close-grip presses and heavy skullcrushers using some "english" are much more practical and productive.

Slow down on the drugs! You still haven't answered my question, at this point in dex's career what does Glass have to offer?? So you are telling me that dex is learning something new, something he possibly didn't know while training for over 20 years and finally he found the secret. Give me a break I guess he can now bring more striations out of his glutes. Hahaha these so called gurus!!!

Sorry if you paid glass to train you

Because at 3 weeks out it's nice to have someone to push you and just tell you what to do. Plus paying someone makes you accountable to them and them to you. Be that a training partner or trainer,  especially when you are low carbs, your brain isn't functioning properly and training legs. They're not a "necessity" but helpful when dieting hard...most other sports use trainers or coaches why not pro bodybuilders? It's human nature that we function better as a group than as an individual. Every single bodybuilder even the ones you mentioned has had help from other people.

As far as I know Kent Kuehn started this in the mid-eighties (when he was still in great shape). He was using it on his clients and then Charles Glass and others picked it up. Many feel it hits the quad sweep and the glutes better. It was better when hack machines didn’t have that stupid piece that forces your neck forward (when doing regular hacks). When doing the reverse hack that thing makes your arch your head back into a really uncomfortable and possibly dangerous position.   

Tried the front facing hacks the other day. Great exercise!
