Here you GO and


pumpster is OWNED  ;)

LOL i'm glad i livened things up in here for those with no lives and hours to spend on mindless truce threads that give their lives meaning while searching for pics. I give their lives purpose. bwahaahahahaahahahahah Platz does not seem to have relied much on leg press, not the bread and butter.

ND and cronies actually spent quality time posting over and over again on pages 998, 999 and 1,000 just to monopolize those pages, while no one else cared. Losers ROFLMAO

Only nerds with no lives post over and over again to fill up entire pages up to and including page 1,000 of the truce thread. You are pathetic.

That doesn't even include trailing pump around while furiously PMing cronies to do same, which is obvious. ;D

Hope this helps

I love when you get frustrated , you've been owned so many times on the truce thread you left with your tail between your legs to be a ' mod ' in the training section , giving bodybuilding advice despite not bodybuilding , this is pathetic , pathetic equipment , pathetic excuse for a place to live and almost as pathetic as your gimmick accounts  ;)

You can pull it off with hack squates and leg presses. You don't need to do full blown squats for great legs.

By the way, you're the man. You're spot on in everything you say about Dorian, he's the all time best, and that includes Arnold, too. I guess I'm a 'bit' biased, though, LOL.....

Oh, and by the way, asshole, I have already stated a million times I live in Brazil!! 8)  Trust me, I'm very for real, and the only coincidence between me and ND is that we actually can see that the grass is green!! Common sense, normal guys, with a LIFE and an objective eye to evaluate the true meaning of things can think alike, i.e., ND and me, and a lot others here, too!! ;)

The disgrace in these boards are guys like hulkster, YOU (  :-* ) , EARL 1972 and the likes......but what good would it be to post in here if it wasn't for you guys to induce excelent ownings, courtesy of us !!!  ;D

why are you arguing with some mo who wastes time on a bowflex thinking he's a hardcore trainer when he doesnt even have the balls to go to a gym.

even a 24 hour gym in the middle of the night.

he still wont go.

yet he acts like he's a training expert and bbing judge.

at least vince g, alexxx, etc. go to a gym.

pumpster is by far the most pathetic person on this board. 


ps, even TA and DA go to a gym.

My legs only respond to deep squats.  Any kind of leg press just doesn't give me the mass I get by doing heavy squats.   I tried leg presses for a full year and lost size on my thighs.  Went back to squats and the size can back on immediately.

That's what I'm saying. I didn't say legpress was bad, I said it shouldn't be the cornerstone of your leg workout. I legpress after I squat, but there is no way baby could keep the getaway sticks swole just pressing all day.

And I'm sure Platz legpressed but he didn't become a legend "legpressing" for 10 minutes straight.

I didn't think Mikey would get so butt hurt over me not fauning over Yates leg routine and resort to peppering me with this icon -> :-\

hehehe, you spoke like a true prodigy, so relax, I won't 'pepper' you with this  :-\ !!

I agree with what you said. I have been saying EXACTLY this: both exercises are the cornerstone of any good leg program, provided your biomechanics is well suited for both, otherwise it's a moot point insisting on an exercise just because it belongs to the Pantheon of the best exercises ever created, hence Dorian sticking to legpresses and smith machine squats. Hell, Frank Zane built his medialis combining sissy squats superseted with leg presses with feet on the bottom of the platform, heels out of it, just the balls of the feet.

Now Tom was born to free squat, period! He would be a fool to ditch squats of his program if he responded so well to them, maybe that's why he DIDN'T FEEL THE NEED to explore other choices and concepts of an unorthodox primary mass builder for the quads, so he kept legpresses as a detail exercise, but nevertheless he FOUND IT VALUABLE to his training, that's the key. ;)

So in closing this discussion, yes, leg pressing can be a tough guy of an exercise if done properly and if taken to the outerlimits of failure, just like you would do with a regular squat. If you don't allow yourself a quarter squat, why would you be content with a half ass, flex/unflex the knees ROM legpress with 2000 pounds??? Maybe that's why legpresses are so polemic in discussions like this. To my mind discussing what's more valuable between squats and legpresses is the SAME as discussing which one has more benefits in terms of mass, barbell curls or alternate dumbell curls? Some people find discomfort with a straight barbell on the wrists and can't feel a twinge on the biceps with an E-Z barbell, but they almost have orgasms with a dumbell in each hand, doing alternate curls, because of the pump they are feeling with them. Would you have the balls to go to that person to say "Hey! your choice as the main massbuilder for the biceps is a shame!!" I guess no......

I've seen Platz train many times. He does do leg presses, both angled & old school vertical.

I'm here to help. :)
