    IMPORTANT INFO ➡️ 1. You can use squat shoes on leg press to help get more range of motion, however, let’s be real. Most people aren’t bringing squats shoes to the gym.
    2. You can do reverse banded hack squats to even out the resistance profile of the exercise. But again let’s be real, MOST people aren’t doing that. I like to do it, but this video isn’t covering that.
    3. Sissy squats - WATCH MY SISSY SQUAT VIDEO - It will show how you can progress them. They take practice. They are my favorite quad exercise.
    4. Are there other great exercises for the quads? Yes, but these are all you would ever need.
    Barbell squats didn’t make the list? No. Although they’re a great exercise and obviously can help you grow your quads, they are not the best when compared to a leg press, hack squat, and pendulum squats.
    With squats, there are many potential outside factors that can cause your quads to not get the best stimulus for growth. For instance, maybe your low back gets tired before your quads do, and as a result, your form breaks down. Issues like this are not of concern with the exercises shown in this video.
    I am not saying “never do barbell squats”. I think it’s a great thing for every lifter to be proficient at them. You can get very good results from them.

      Regular squats don’t actually emphasize the quads as much as you’d think. Johnny Shreve has a video about quads as well where he discussed why. Hack squat is definitely way better if your purpose is to target quads as hard as possible. Regular squats are still a top 3 leg exercise though.

      Barbell squats are an amazing movement for so many reasons. They can be used to grow your quads obviously. I think everyone who lifts and is able to - should be proficient at them. But there are better options purely from a quad building perspective 🍻

    Hey I’ve been following you for a while I am 53 years old I’ll be 54 at the end of the month I’ve been training for 20 some odd years may be close to 30 I’ve been all different weights 225 and shredded 265 and scary
    I just had two stents put in my heart and I am going back to the gym next week any suggestions on what or how I should train I probably weigh around 245 pounds right now I’d like to stay between 245 and 255. By the way you are extremely inspirational to my son who was very overweight last December and now he is starting to come into his own he’s lost 30 pounds and starting to put some muscle on

    Dudes often think that you can bias certain parts of the quads but turning your feet in or out. Not really, as 3/4 of the quad muscles don't attach to the hips whatsoever, where the function of feet turning comes from (by contrast most of the hamstrings attach to the hip, so this method can work for them.) Peak midrange tension especially biases the VL (the sweep,) and deep stretch biases the VMO (teardrop.) Keep in mind "bias" doesn't mean isolate, everything else is still working hard.
    Lunges, BSS, and other single-leg exercises are hax af for this reason. Midrange and lengthened tension are high, and the rec fem of the back leg gets stretched tremendously. I'd almost call single-leg exercises a necessity tbh, but that relates to leg growth in general, not quads specifically.

      Your feet can turn left and right through tibia rotation
