Just saying, nearly everyone I've seen do the toe pointing stuff Ends up rotating the knee in or out too..knee is a hinge joint, having it not align with the plane of the machine is an awful idea for knee health and also limits loading. So sure; an EMG might show more than activation, but is it more stimulus/tension for that muscle than using more load aligning normally? Highly doubtful

As far as training legs I think people over-rate it. In my experience you really don't have to do anything crazy. 3 warmup sets of squats then 3 working sets. (As deep as you can go/ATG). 2-3 working sets on a hamstring focused movement. 2-3 working sets of another quad focused movement (Leg press or leg extension). 4 working sets on calves in a 20 rep range.
Every 4 to 5 days ^. All kind of craziness is not needed. You don't need to vomit or limp out the gym.

ITT: too many virgins who don't realize that women like strong legs on a guy
Emphasis onwomen, for the "if there's grass on the field..." losers on this forum.
JFL if women aren't checking you out while you squat. I do front foot elevated bulgarian split squats just to make sure I go nice and deep. So women know: it's all about being balls deep in that snatch.

1. Talks about 'sexiest men'
2. Claims someone else is a *******
You're not fooling anyone, bitch boy. You're mad because Australian women go to the mayor's office in Pound Town with me and ignore your low test, bottom bitch self.
FOH, twink.
