Hello BBM, I was wondering if you guys have any recommendations for rep ranges on the leg press. I’ve always liked including them in my program and was doing sets of 8 w/ about 2 RIR on the top set on Friday. Have been experiencing some some knee pain since then. I also changed my technique a bit after moving my feet down and seat back for more quad involvement after watching a leg press technique video from Renaissance Periodization. I was thinking this is just a loading issue and maybe aiming more for the 12-15 rep range on the leg press.
The advice in this article would apply here: Pain in Training: What To Do?
Temporarily increasing the rep range, and potentially introducing some tempo, are reasonable steps for the short term.
