leg press with just you heels, maybe 4incehes worth or so on the top of the platform. It will feel like a short range of motion casue it kind of is...but by oh man. I do those and the next day mine are killin me.

Sweet. I do lunges all the time, I thought they where mostly for quads. I am crazy about the GHR for some reason. THanks guys for the post. Mark

The stance and distance between each step impact the emphasis of the lift.

Thats a really good one, i think DC popularized that.
If you wanna switch it up with SLDLs try either using all 25 lb plates or standing on some kinda of block or plates when doing it it'll increase the range of motion, i always feel them a lot more with the increased range of motion.

1. I had never known where that cam efrom, just gave it a shot one day, in my head it made sense.

2. I am with you on the 25lb plates too or high in the air.

Deadlifts and RDL's, of course. I also like GoodMornings. Just make sure you don't go too heavy that you can get the full ROM. Glute Hams kick asss too.

Good Mornings, Dead lifts, ham tractor, squats (done right), single leg presses; all worked for me.
