The quickest, easiest, no pain leg extension setup 👇🏼👇🏼

1) Line knees up with the red dot

2) Adjust shin pad as far back as it will go, place on the lower shins (not ankles)

3) Sit down FIRST, then adjust the seat snug against the hips

4) Think ‘pull knee caps towards the hip’ as you extend the legs

Save for later 🤙🏼🤙🏼 by @ruth_mpower

Cliff notes 👇🏼

❌ Junk volume is out
✅ Smart exercise selection is in

Burny, bandy, novelty stuff bulks up most programs but has no place in an efficient one.

If you want to optimize your time in the gym, make sure your exercises are high bang for buck.

❌ Distracted, low effort training is out
✅ Training with intensity is in

Higher volume training often lends towards *lower effort* training either out of burnout or pure physiological necessity.

When taking *more sets closer to failure*, you can get away with *fewer overall sets.*

Pretty neat.

Save & share 🤓✍🏼

Bullet list for your convenience 👇🏼

📦 Box - knee crease height or just lower

🍑 Hips - baaaack to fully stretch the glutes

🦵🏼 Legs - 90° (once we get lower than around 90 we’re no longer getting more glutes, we’re getting more quads)

🫁 Chest - forward (this will happen as a byproduct of sending the hips back and achieving that 90° knee bend)

These cues are what make for a stellar glute biased step up - max glute stretch with less quad involvement (there will never be none.)

KNEE FLEXION POLICE: this is a *glute* biased step up. I do more knee flexion/knees over toes for quads. :)

What’s your fav glute step-up variation? Cable, DB, something else?? Comment!
