Can I use the LEG PRESS to build muscle?

Place your feet at shoulder length and higher in the footplate to emphasize glutes/hammies, and lower in the footplate to emphasize quads, also if you trust your knees fully lockout to get maximum quad activation, place your feet right in the middle for overall leg building.

Compared to other bigass compound movements, like my favorite one, them SQUATS, for overall leg development, the leg press stands supreme because let's be realistic here, in squats your LOWER BACK will give out WAY WAY earlier than your legs.

COME TO THE IRON PATH!

Make sure your entire back and the upper area of that MEAT CUSHION aka Gluteus Maximus are always in contact with the pad to avoid lower back tweaks and problems.

If you have wonky knees that already had a date with a surgeon's blade avoid fully locking out by keeping your knees in line with your toes.

To emphasize in the inner thighs point your feet outwards and open your stance, to emphasize your quad sweep slightly closer than shoulder length and point your feet slightly inward, when doing this GO LIGHTER because when your toes are pointing inwards your ligaments loosen up and you're at higher risk of tearing shit.

The Leg Press is a GIGANTIC compound movement that offers EXTERNAL STABILIZATION allowing you to recruit maximum amounts of high-threshold motor units, those FAST-TWITCH FIBERS, they are the biggest ones in your muscles and the most susceptible to hypertrophy, and they only activate when be body is in a STABLE POSITION and against high magnitudes of tension, it's them fast-twitch fibers that produce the most force and are absolutely full of glycogen making the LEG PRESS a staple exercise for both LOW REP/HIGH-INTENSITY mechanical tension work, and HIGH REP/LOW-INTENSITY metabolic stress work, allowing for even a day 1 beginner, or a veteran warrior of the IRON PATH to express their maximum strength with an exquisitely low risk of injury.

LEG PRESSING REAL GOOD.

Is it okay if I am not interested to talk to any of my relatives as I saw the real faces in my brother's marriage as none of them helped us rather were a kind of disappointment and were talking bad?

Use FULL RANGE ON MOTION aka FULL ROM by bringing your knees as close to your chest as possible, the greater the ROM the bigger the GAINZ, just don't lift that butt from the pad.

Now, if you wanna make them knee joints more stable, do 1 leg at a time, single-leg work no matter which exercises force the leg to optimize its balance, reinforcing everything that's around the knee joint, including that beautiful teardrop you always wanted.
