woody, one thing I have never been interested in is lifting heavy for ego.
I'm with you there. I was talking more about lifting heavy for low reps which has a direct effect on over-all leg strength, and all the other bits that are used as well. My idea of a heavy set is 80% of your real or estimated 1RM for 3 reps, give or take. So, its not to impress the faggitz doing tricep kick backs, its included to tax your body so that it gets stronger in response.
Its not a matter of showing off, its a matter of pushing your CNS and legs to compensate for the heavy work. That translates into real strength gains IF your form is correct.
Add to that the high rep leg press and you got some serious gainz.
