Recently got my hands on a leg extension pad and used it for my leg+spine workout today and WOW, what a game changer! I got the most insane pump in my quads that I think I’ve ever felt.
Basically you put this on the leg pad of the leg extension to add another few inches of ROM. Might not seem like much, but a few inches is a lot ok! I’ve been full stacking the leg extension machines at my gym for a few months now and have gotten up to a rep range I find unproductive due to metabolic fatigue. This made me decrease the weight by 30+ kgs and work in a much more comfortable 5-8 rep range.
It also makes the resistance profile more even (imo). The bottom gets harder and there aren’t any sticking points like I often experience without this pad (for reference I am using the hammer strength leg extension).
Only con is that it’s kinda big and a pain to get in my gym bag… but otherwise a great investment! Bought this one from GymPin
