Leg Press Curl Holds
Posted May 22nd, 2007

One of the big problems with the Leg Press is that it's ONLY lower body. Use this technique to turn the Leg Press into a TOTAL body exercise, which is better for mass-building AND fat loss - it's a tough one and very effective!

Dumbell Zercher Squats
Posted May 20th, 2008

The Zercher Squat is an excellent leg and core exercise. This variation uses a single dumbell to achieve the same results - it's harder in some ways and easier in others. A very good one, though!

Barbell-End Hack Squats
Posted October 14th, 2008

This is a GREAT one for hitting the thighs with very simple equipment. You just need a barbell and some guts - it's the same sort of movement as a hack squat machine only a whole lot better (you're not totally locked into the movement like with a machine).

Bent-Over One Leg Dumbell Split Squat on Bench
Posted September 26th, 2009

This is a step up from the standard on-bench split squat, adding in a bent-over body position to incorporate the lower back into the movement as well. This one has great potential for athletic training - single leg, balance, uneven torsion on the body.

The Most Truly INSANE Leg Exercise I've Ever Come Up With...Rack Sissy Squats To Leg Press
Posted November 10th, 2009

Ok, I realize this one is completely nuts...but let me tell you, the effects you'll get on the quads make this a superstar exercise. It's going to trash your quads from full stretch to a powerful contraction by combining to two distinct exercises into one movement. Even if you never do it, you've gotta see it.

Suitcase Style One-Arm Deadlifts With Bar Grip
Posted December 22nd, 2009

I'm a big fan of the Suitcase-Style One Arm Deadlift...this version makes a few adjustments and improvements to allow for more reps, more weight, better balance and an increased effect on thighs, more so than the lower back. It's a good one!

Switch Leg Split Squats
Posted September 9th, 2011

Training the legs can be boring...not anymore! This version of the barbell split squat is not only fun and challenging, it actually presents the body with some unique training...you'll be forced to start each rep from the bottom at a total dead stop, taking away all elastic tension, which GREAT for building power out of the hole in a squat/lunge movement.
