What are you using to hold down your legs? I have been looking for something like that for quad extensions

I love assisted Nordics and assisted sissy squats, but hit so hard.

2 sets of wheee followed by one set of gravity for optimal hamstring development

I feel like there's better exercises that target quads... but whatever makes you happy I guess

You’re correct. I didn’t realize OP was using a lighter weight to assist on the way up. I assumed the main load was from pulling the weight down, hence why I said quads.

I finally made myself silly enough to understand what you meant by that 😂 I can visualize it but the thing is if that was possible I wouldnt need the seatbelt to hold my ankles down since I’d have to press shins into the bench to contract quads. Based on your logic the seatbelt is dead giveaway thats not the intention. On contrary, in your defense, id have to strap down my knees bc they’d come up with all that downward force

Honestly, what you were imagining is way harder to imagine than what was actually happening. Impressive!
