best pain is Leg Extension pain
« on: February 03, 2011, 10:20:37 PM »
Some pain in weight lifting feels kind of orgasmic. dj181 had a thread about the hardest "isolation" exercise (what the hell is wrong with that guy?) Any way, it came down to leg extension vs. calf raise. Personally I would way rather do leg extension any day. THAT pain will get you fucking tripping on shrooms.  :o

Fuck it, maybe it releases drugs from stored body fat asswipe, don't be so judgmental.

Anyhoo, leg extensions are one of the most !!  leet

leg extensions are a waste of time except to warm up the knees and if your going to failure on them than you dont know how to train properly or you must be training for some kind of marathon leg extensions competition.

I've heard it too.  I just don't understand how, so therefore I can't accept it as true.  I would think diet would be more important.

Leg extensions are a good exercise and will add good size.

Tbombz train 3x2 won't build any muscle.

During the last 15 degrees of the movement the vastus medialus and lateralus are called into play, so supposedly extensions are a requirement for completely and fully developed quads.

Leg Extension = best way to create chronic knee pain

Unless you are a pro, never do leg extensions, the will lead to knee injury. I really thought this was common knowledge

pretty funny how they rehab knee injuries on this very knee wrecker!!!!

dont be fucking stupid, best way to get the blood pumping, and to me aswell as countless other who actualy have leg development, are pretty much a vital tool

Yeah maybe there's a good burn involved with high rep leg extensions, but it's not very difficult.

For pain + difficulty, try this... take 30-40% of your one rep max and try to squat it 50 times.  I've seen it turn men into babies  :'(

Yes but then they do like 50 reps, but by all means if you wanna do this 8 reps to total failure be my guest...
