Re: quad excersises

Squats, leg press, leg extensions (<- what you mentioned above) It's not bad for the cartilidge in your knees, it's only bad when you make hte mistake of trying to lift more htan you can...just like any other exercise. I personally have played soccer for years and have used that as one way to add speed to my shot, and I can max that thing out over and over. But for others, that would be way too much weight and they could hurt themselves.

If squats and leg presses don't have you quads and hamstrings hurting the next day...either you're cheating yourself technique-wise, or not doing enough weight.

Your 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 is the 92nd out of the 315 that were made that year. Only 21 of which are exactly identical.
