I have a prob with training legs heavy


i just cannot do it now due to a hip flexer and joint problem


what exersizes can i do ? which wont put too much stress on this area
 
How do you feel with leg press, if you can stabilize the hips and back area on the padding and just really focus on leg work and driving with the legs rather than the hips and lower back.


What leg work can you do at the moment? ? ?
 
K-man... As you know, I have a total metal hip and my leg workout is limited. I can't go heavy and am not supposed to take my hip past 90deg. I just have to stick with lighter weights. Nothing more I can do so I know how restrictive it can be.


Hope someone can suggest something to help both of us.

No problems mate.


My particular favourite would bethe bulgarian split squats, they are killer!

They look good Tom.


Especially for injuries in the past where it means that single leg work is then favourable.
