You can, but it's not optimal. I spent 3 years leg pressing before I started squatting. Was leg pressing nearly 400kg full ROM for fairly high reps.
Stopped being a pussy a year ago and started squatting. My legs are literally more developed and muscle now from only working upto a 120kg squat for set of 10. My posture is also better, overall strength increase across the board over all lifts and my lower back/posterior chain feels much more developed and solid.
I would never go back to leg pressing again. Squatting as much as I hate it compared to leg pressing, it seriously trains the body better, not only that but it trains more muscles in the body. My lower back wasn't getting any training when I was leg pressing, but it gets huge amounts of development from squatting.
TLDR: Squatting is much better than Leg pressing. You're really limiting yourself by choosing to Leg press over a squat.

My knees hurt looking at the picture

Why? Is this a meme?
I'll never understand it.
My knees hurt back when I would not go down far enough. Now that I go ass to calves my knees no longer hurt.
Protip: If your knees hurt when squatting its because you're not going low enough and you're lying to yourself if you think you are.

Maybe it's about how far out her knees are. Look at Klokov, he keeps his knees not as far from toes, as she.
But I'm not sure, if that's about that, so correct me, if I'm wrong.

knee not passing toes is a low bar clue to get the form to be sure the weight is on the heels
fr those 2 pics it depends on your flexibilty in ankles and hips
I wouldn't say gher form is good as I can't really see shit

Klokov has stumpy legs though.
I'm 6'2 with long ass legs. To hit depth my knees go way in front of my toes, especially in the snatch/oh squat.
Knees inline with toes is a Rippleytits meme.

>a girl I meat
That's the way, anon, that's the way
>>34863605

>>34864575
It's about proportions, mate. A bit different for everybody.

I feel pain in my knees when squatting atg.. poor flexibility somewhere? Also how to fix buttwink? Low bar isn't option due to poor shoulder flexibility.
>tfw as flexible as barbell
>>34863605
Tell her that you'll try something new that she wants you to do, and then invite her to reciprocate the behavior by squatting with you. Also do not word it as if you're trying to "fix" her, just enjoying new things together.

>>34866028
you fix buttwink by going with your knees forward like that
stretch your calves before you attempt it, and dont use high weight yet
>>34866354
I'll keep that in mind, thanks!
