How Foot Placement Matters for the Leg Press | Featuring IFBB Pro Dani LaMartina
When you mix the science with in the gym knowledge……this is where you find the magic. I know so many will scream, “you can’t bias the quad sweep!!”
Wrong. I’ve been fighting this battle for years now. This same group of people say you can’t target upper, mid or lower pecs. Wrong again.
In today’s video, Dani and I share our thoughts on how to put pressure on the feet to really make your quad sweep burn like fire when using the leg press.
Give this a listen, focus on her notes and then go into the gym and apply.
It’s been an absolute pleasure to film these education segments with Dani bc her total understanding of the human body. Also bc she recognizes that once you add 50-100 pounds of actual muscle, it drastically changes a persons biomechanics. Something that a ton of really smart doctors and coaches fail to account for.

    What do you think about 16 sets pre muscle pre week ? (doing them once a week) my current split is Chest,Sholders/Arms/Rest/Legs/Back/2 days rest i saw this video and i am thinking to try it but my problem is from some reason i really need a lot of time for arms to rest like 5 days(when doing like 8 sets pre workout) ,so i would like to try this split push/pull/legs and another arm day but i dont think that i am able to do arm day after push and pull.and if you can say me maybe how much sets should i do on push and pull and on arm day. Really i dont know reason why my arms need so much days to recover my protein in take is good and sleep about 8 or more hours

    • @CrisEdmondsTV

      so arms on the push and pull days in terms of sets should be 4-6 total working sets and no more. the goal here is simply get a bit of blood/pump there and get out 16 sets per body part seems high to me and I can't remember the last Time I did that much

    I’ve done 28 Days Later, Colossus, The Executioner, and Gamma Bomb on multiple occasion at different times depending on my current goal. Right now I’m on week 12 of The Executioner while dieting. Here’s what I do with Colossus. I take the bicep and tricep movements and make them their own day. So it turns into back, chest and shoulders, legs, arms, off, pump day you need, off, repeat. I love Colossus because you only get 1 or 2 opportunities to annihilate the set. There’s also a lot of band work and it’s fun to have a log book without having a log book. I’m about to start another growth phase. What program would be great for someone who is trying to be mindful of their lower back? Or, what program should I try next because I can always modify an exercise if needed.

    Cris, such great instruction. On a Leg, Push, Pull split I feel like I can’t hammer my rear delt when I tack it on the push day. The reason being when rear delts are sore it negatively effects a lot of my rowing. Guessing this can be very nuanced but any thoughts on a work around?

    John Meadows and you taught me a longtime ago how to build rear delts. It’s no longer a problem for me. If I take a month off hitting them though they shrink on my body and disappear. Dumbbells either bent over like here or on an incline bench and then partials. I recently saw a Phil Heath shoulder workout and he made fun of partials but I feel the burn and like them. Reverse pec deck machine and cable pull aparts and a light band for burning I have this figured out. Really cool to look good from the side in the mirror. Thanks Cris. Always good work you’re doing
