Leg Press Mistakes (AVOID THIS!)



If you want to maximize leg growth on the leg press, you should be like leg pressing deep enough until your legs form a 90 degree or smaller angle, but without your lower back rounding. However, many people fail to go deep safely due to the following two common mistakes. The first mistake is setting the angle too high, which shortens the range of motion. Ideally, you set the seat on the lowest angle for greater range of motion. The second mistake is placing the feet too narrow, which also shortens the range of motion. Ideally, you place your feet wider so that your thighs can move further back.

  1. But the problem I seem to have is my height l. I mostly use the leg press for more quad focus. You know, with feet placement but I do stop short on range. Should I go wider or higher on feet placement? But will I still get the quad focus exercise?

  2. I really struggle with this. When I angle the seat up, my range of motion is super limited, but any lower, and my legs aren’t long enough to push the weights past the stopper.
