Staggered Leg Press

[datBtrue]

Has anyone ever tried the "Staggered Leg Press". The video demonstrates them. Nine Pack described them as follows:

Your low leg is there only to stabilise, so it's essentially doing about 20% of the work compared to the high leg.

The foot position of the low leg means that the knee only passes through the middle third of it's ROM so it gets no rest. when you switch foot positions half way through the set, the medialis on the leg that was low & is now high will be screaming in agony by rep 4 or 5.

Never tried staggered like that but I have done just one leg at a time and it is considerably harder. I could only do about a quarter of what I can normally press.

I do one legged leg press like that and it kills me. Im going to try that. looks pretty effective....might be something to confuse the muscle and hit it different
