[@joshuacash]

Jay - THANK YOU! I've been doing leg extensions and can only feel it near my knees. I'm going to try your technique this week.

Thanks Jay. I applied this technique on my leg extensions and I’m really feeling a pump in my upper quads rather than lower quads. I didn’t think it was possible!

[@petechampion297]

Clear and to the point , I wish all tutorials were as good as the ones Jay has done so far ...keep them coming ,..

[@24-7guy]

Perfect and simple tip for upper quad. Thanks Jay!

[@t.j.5574]

Thanks Jay! Never knew that. Will start doing that from now on.

[@nikitaw1982]

Pointing toes means taking tension off calves so ankles get higher.

[@alicecullotto7530]

This series is awesome

[@amac0612]

thanks man I was wondering how to point the feet during this

Amazing instructions by the great Jay cutler

[@TheologiaEvangelica]

Apparently 12 to 15 times means 10 to 12 reps.

[@phatbastard2026]

Troy Smalley Your a bright one aren't you? U criticize then cut the reps down from what he says. Safe to say you are another unsuccessful one because you don't listen! Kudos to you!

[@undercovermc]

@@phatbastard2026 the video says 10-12 even though Jay says 12-15, dummy.

[@sashineb.2114]

And how many of the big guys have I heard say to only do 8 - 10 for growth?

[@Lionheart_He-Man]

No matter how old this video maybe, I just learned something new, ‘Point my toes out, not up’ 😲😲😲 I will implement this strategy next time on my leg curls 🤓

[@jaccabana26]

I always wondered how to get the upper quads involved.

[@danielqiu3779]

Got this recommended in my feed. When I first saw the title I thought it was the NFL quarterback Jay Cutler. I was like damn Smoking Jay is becoming a body builder now?

[@slayerfan3319]

I was watching this and imagining me at the gym doing this and I noticed my breathing was mimicking how I breath on the machine 😂

[@lizelaine2140]

Wow.muscles! I have been lifting for only a month and I Love my leg extensions! My outer thighs are already growing. I just tried feet outward and had to come here to make sure that this is a valid exersise!( toes out) 😂

[@olderthanyoucali8512]

Please explain biomechanically how pointing your toes effects the rectus femoris (upper thighs) ?

[@RedZAgs193]

I'd assume it's stretching your shin and likely the muscle around your knee so it removes emphasis. Then it's just the next muscle directly in line with the shin.

[@theemperor2017]

[@losangelesnative1586]

For a quarterback, this guy is ripped

[@cheriffitness9193]

Is the leg flexibility in the leg extension exercise true or false ?

[@5Starrr]

Thank You Jay Have A Good One!

[@JeanineMAGA]

Thank you!! I've been doing them wrong for fifteen years.

[@parales03]

So how would you target the outer. That’s my weakest point.

[@jenjensczmk1508]

Good to know. Point toes coming up. Thx 😊

[@tonyreed6913]

Thanks Jay !!!

[@arshbhullar3093]

Absolutely love this guy

[@kenjenkillasounds]

Whooaaaa this definitely works and i had to lower my weight because my upper quads arent use to being hit like this wow

[@ronaldanyuru5579]

good video G.

[@jamesnathapong7284]

But why do some people say that leg extension is bad for knees?

[@MB-uj7hp]

Pointing ´´out’´ means forward or out to each side??

[@goldengun9970]

Look at his feet you can see

[@jenjensczmk1508]

It means pointing toes forward not to the side

[@EsmaragdoGonzalez]

Am I supposed to push with my shins/ankles or push with my quads?

[@hblack998]

So wild I just found this video. Started doing this a few months ago just experimenting on the machine with lighter weights and noticing where I felt the pump.

Do you lockout your knees at the top or not?

[@abhisekhsingh4370]

Hello. my weight is 65kgs and i am a badminton player and for that i need power in my legs. For leg press and leg extension how much weight shall i take to start with?. I will be obliged if you guide throughout . Leg press how much weight for startling?. For leg extension how much weight to start with? Thanks and regards

[@mintsiez]

+Abhisekh Singh start really low and bump up till you can feel the weight and the muscle working

[@madmike987655]

+Abhisekh Singh I will give you a better tip.... DONT EVEN DO ANY OF THOSE!!! The reason I say this is, you play badminton, you don't need these workouts for a sport like that, because the only thing you're lifting is yourself! Stick to squats, go outside and find some steps where there might be something like 10 - 20 steps... and practice jumping them, go all the way down ass to grass and jump hard to see how many steps you can clear... You can incorporate lunges as well. so yeah, practice doing squats for reps, explosive squats, jump squats and all those sorts of muscles.. if you have any leg adductor and abductor machines in the gym, use those to work on the inner and outer parts of the quads as they will be prone to injury in something like badminton if you've never worked on them before.

[@abhisekhsingh4370]

madmike987655 , hey thanks for your suggestion ..and what about arms training? . I would be obliged if you can email me and we can be in regular touch. My id-- [e-mail]

[@YassineAvernakis]

In a lot of other videos, people keep saying leg extensions are bad for the knees, but Jay Cutler does them! Is okay if I do them just as a warm up/ low weight? Thanks.

[@dinafawzy1311]

I'll try it

[@JimitriG]

Point the toes for upper quads??? Please explain?

[@6789uiop]

JimitriG I have no idea. But I'm fairly sure Jay has a very good idea. I'm gonna try it.

[@turnippatrol4607]

JimitriG The leg extension is great for the upper quads (rectus femoris muscle) but I don't see how it has anything to do with pointing the toes. When you lift your hips up off the seat a little bit and lean backwards while doing the extensions you stretch the upper quads, which also function as hip flexors, so there is more tension up there.

[@JimitriG]

Turnip Patrol that bit makes sense. could be a cue that somehow helps to activate the muscle...

[@teaganbob]

+Turnip Patrol maybe it give you better form? idk.

[@kamaz1381]

JimitriG this was clearly a raw lift, don't take the P

[@skatedd2451]

Thank you

"4 time Ms. Olympia" he says :0

[@ankit2094]

Should one pause at the top?

[@jenjensczmk1508]

Noooo

[@dma-weOldLuveve]

l just felt the difference...salute ya

[@wirelesschick123]

Should I lock my knees ?

[@ABABABABABABABABABABBBBBB]

not completely but go very close. when i lock my knees sometimes it hurts the knee joint and that should be avoided at al costs

[@jenjensczmk1508]

No. Don't lock your joints on any exercise

[@MrRonjohnson2009]

0:06 4 time MISS OLYMPIA????? WTF????????? I thought this dude was intelligent......

[@sass174]

No he says "mista olympia" he has an accent

[@312luisr]

This is exactly kzbin.infoUgkxUHHotQRjIQnfuxEeVotlkHVYWH0DXZoS what I needed to get some exercise while I'm stuck at my desk all day. It's just the right size. Only downsides are that the right oeddale unscrews itself while I use it and increasing the tension causes it to squeak while in use. Both are minor issues that aren't that important to me. So I give it 5 stars.

Ah wow I remember this myth about toe pointing... how dumb we were.

[@Baegitte]

Tom platz: but why……

[@nickrunaway2]

pointing your toes in any direction doesn't change the type of tension on the quads lol. the feet are connected to a completely different joint

[@nayak4636]

nickrunaway2 did you even tried it , it works believe me

[@Dave-sc5jm]

Yeah let's doubt one of the best bodybuilders in the world because Nick on KZbin says it's wrong. I had physio on my legs after 3 acl ruptures spread over a decade and pointing your toes was a big part of rehabilitation so you know fuck all mate.

[@ladykd2355]

I tried it...doing it right now. Idk why it's different, but it is! It works!

[@nickrunaway2]

@@Dave-sc5jm late response, but you clearly are the one who knows 'fuck all mate' since you dont even know where the toe flexors attach on the human body. they dont even attach to the femur (upper leg bone) which means its literally impossible for pointing your toes to have any effect on a quadricep contraction. i have studied anatomy at university
