holy shit how much weight is that
being conservative when counting the plates, it is at least 1500lbs.
>tfw you recognize this webm from the thumbnail
LIGHTWEIGHT BABY
Can someone post this webm for me please, haven't seen it for a long time
I just don't understand the reasoning behind this machine. Not even joking. The possible risks outweigh the benefits so much it's incredible anybody uses that shit.
These machines need ejector seats for this very reason
I think it's more like 1700lbs since he has a stack of plates on the fucking back of the sled.
As someone who was a fan of the legpress for a long time you're completely right. It's a shitty substitute for squats with a very limited ROM and a huge potential to fuck up your joints by putting hundreds of pounds of pressure on a single point. Also if you suffer a failure on a legpress then even if you're at the right incline on the seat your knees are going into your gut. Just do fucking squats people.

Feels bad man
so wtf was this guy thinking trying to push 1700 lbs with his legs? is that even possible
More than enough for fucking up your knees. This dude is quite dumb for pulling his legs straight.
Squats is gay. Go for bike.
>Just do fucking squats people.
Yeah, because you can't fuck your shit up with squats too.
It is if you're Ronnie Coleman who was 50% steroids by weight when he did it.
Yeah it's way fucking harder to crush your knee doing squats than holding a 1/2 ton sled above your hip.
He was thinking it would make a really cool video to post online. I guess he was right in that it did make a really cool video, just not the one he was hoping for.
Do I really have to post the compilation of horrible squat injuries?
>tfw you have unlocked Madcat Mk II mode
shit wrong image
Yeah show me the squat injury where the lifter loaded 1000lbs+ on to the bar because he had been given a false impression of how much he could lift due to the relatively low resistance of the lift and absolute zero form involved and then was crushed because they didn't realize how much fucking weight that is until they started the downstroke. Injuries that happen while doing squats aren't even comparable to leg press injuries because of the chain of events that lead to them.
You haven't heard of powerlifters, have you?
Most of the people who get injured doing leg presses are not powerlifters, it just isn't a comparable situation.
i will literally never use this machine
fuck that shit
>1 second in
nope.
Ok, you're just a brainlet. The point is, if you egolift like a dumbass with shit form, you'll snap your shit, no matter the exercise.
