No, point your toes out on leg extentions while sitting close to the edge for teardrop. Toes in puts focus on outer quad.
Wrong, in my opinion this is the reverse.

unfortunately the tear drop you are referring to is highly genetic depending on "what ya momma gave ya." That being said the anatomy of the teardrop is the insertion points of the vastus medisalis, lateralis, rectus femorus, and sartorius.
Your "opinion" is wrong....maybe that's just how it feels to you. But Science and EMG analysis show that toes out on extensions and sitting closer to the edge of the seat = vastus medialis focus and stimulation, toes in = vastus lateralis...... BTW, I am an Exercise Physiologist in a Hospital based Sports Medicine lab and rehab facility.....I also did plenty of EMG analysis testing myself in my undergrad and grad school studies to confirm this for my own training programs I develop. I am not just posting opinions when I post...StrongRhino is another member who does the same.
This is just an FYI to watch for your future posts when you say "Wrong" to ppl..... Know your facts and who you are correcting.

Does this mean that Dorian is wrong in his video because he advises a wider stance to target the inner quads and a narrow stance to work the outer quads?
