Before you laugh at this question, please take a moment
to read this post.
I'm not a big fan of leg extensions. When exercising
my legs, I prefer compound movements.
But one thing I have noticed, is that when I have
performed leg extensions (which is infrequently and usually
only to warm up my knee joints; never heavy or with a
explosive movement) they do not make me sore. It is about
the only exercise I can recall ever having performed that does
not induce muscular soreness.
The only way to know for sure to try this . . . after a week
or two layoff, do leg extensions; nothing else for your legs.
Do as many sets and reps as you like. Do forced reps, negatives,
rest pause, super slow. Do them, until you can't walk, I don't care.
Do anything you want as long it is the only exercise you do for
your legs. (Yes, I have done this.)
And then tell us if you get sore. I doubt if you will.
Tired and fatigued the next day: yes. Muscular soreness: no.
Your personal experiences or opinions?
