Do the same thing with the leg presses and curls. This should help.


Just re-reading this.

I leg-press 180 (2 plates a side) in loooong sets to cut. I bulk with 360 (4 plates a side). 210 on leg-press isn't all that much. It's substantial, but not bulking proportions for a fit, medium-sized woman.
