A year ago I could barely leg press 4 plates (2 on each side) for 8 reps. I started squatting half a year later, and now I just did the leg press again and it's astonishing how easy the 4 plates were. I could have done easily 20+reps. Also, my legs have gotten so much bigger from squatting.
Squatting is not a meme exercise.
Yep, you're right.

I did leg press before getting into squat, which I'm fairly new, I could do 100kg for 5x10 in the damn leg press, now I do 20kg/3x10 with zercher squats, the posture alone is far more difficult to master than the damn entire leg press itself, squat is like the king of legs, fuck the leg press.

...100kg leg press... 20kg squats... wtf is wrong with you. I thought I was weak but even I do 81kg squat and 244kg leg press.

I know ;_; I'm still learning how to squat without fucking my shit up and my lower back so I'm doing less weight than I can, also zercher squats are a little tough because you use your biceps and forearms to hold the weight, so lmao1pl8 is out of question until I can endure the discomfort.

how big of a faggot do you have to be to think squats are a meme exercise?
this shit literally glues muscle to your body unlike any other exercise

20kg is literally the bar only

I'm not counting the bar, anon, it's the bar plus two 10kg pl8s, sorry my autism with numbers.

try sidestep squats with just bar or bodyweight. 20 reps each leg for 1 set. it hurts like hell but it's good for improving FUNCTIONAL STRENGTH. no but seriously.. ever since i started doing them i've seen strength gains and im on a caloric defacit
