Hey guys,
I have trouble doing heavy leg workouts due to my bad shoulder. My shoulder kills when I try to do a normal squat or whenever i rest weight on my back, even with 135 and before the severity of my injury increased I could do 275. However, front squats work a bit, i just dont want to push it. Deadlifts are no problem. Leg press is ok. I cant hold enough weight with my hands to sufficiently tire out my legs. Straps dont really work either due to a control issue and/or my traps get fatigued. Any ideas?
I will always have a preference for free weights over machines. However, I still do leg extensions and curls on the machine, but nothing seems to work like squating heavy used to.
Thanks in advance
