Hi Remi! Can I ask you how do you train your legs these days? I’m having lumbar issues and I want to avoid loading my spine while training legs. Therefore barbell squat is not an option for me. Maybe not seated leg extensions either since I want to avoid seated position, as well as leg press machine because it hurts my back when I do it. Are there any good leg exercises that don’t load the spine too much?

[@RemiSovran]

- Shimon Several. Glute bridges/Hip thrusts are a good alternatives to deadlifts. Split-Squats, 1-leg squats, Step-ups could be a good alternative to back squatting or if you concern is loading the spine. I wouldn't look at loading as a bad thing unless it causes pain. (e.,.g heavy load). I'd be more concerned with a technique, bracing, breathing and what positions provoke pain. Also, exercises like mini band walks, clamshells, hip marching are great too :)

[@ShimonFukasaku]

Remi Sovran thank you!!!

[@jamesbrincefield9879]

Quick question, are you holding onto the handles and pushing your back against the seat when you do a leg press? I’ve seen a lot of people who don’t do that, and when you don’t you’re putting a lot of stress on your lower back. I had a friend with the same issue and it helped him instantly.

when i go wide my abductor get fired up and its doesnt feel right, is this suppose to happen?

[@RemiSovran]

- iam What do you mean by fired up?

[@iamcb1338]

@@RemiSovran more activated

[@RemiSovran]

- iam Yeah. That would be normal if it's the muscles.

[@lemmykoopah]

John wick is that you? :)

[@RemiSovran]

haha yes ;)

[@strikerz2668]

should glutes be dominant or hamstring?? or both equal?

[@RemiSovran]

depends on the goal. But typically glutes :) (Glute Bridge)

[@herko8]

Do you have any advice for single leg glute bridge and you feel it more in the hamstrings/quads?

[@RemiSovran]

- Hermes Similar concepts would be apply to this video. But keep in mind in a single leg glute bridge, it's a lot more challenging and the added bodyweight may force the quadricep/hamstring to kick-in and help stabilize.

[@philipmclaughlin7498]

youll get jnternal rotation in hips and range of motion by really getting exhalatibg before a bridge and also making sure your.tongue postute is spot on and able to swallow correctly. That will turn on your pel ic floor and diaphragmatic floor. Thank me later. Hidden gem and explaind your poor hip range.
