Good job evil, I do these quite often instead of squats after pre-exhaustion with leg extensions, this enables to use lighter wts as per dbell`s. Using different height boxes will also emplasise hams or quads.
A good vid, only crititism I have is, when you put the db`s down you should bend knee`s more no matter how light or heavy..cheers

anytime after doing lunges/step ups, my heart rate goes nuts. i measured my pulse and it averages to about 170-180 beats per minute after a set of 16 (8 for each leg), it's killer!

a good replacement for a cardio activity for a day then. I completly agree, I totally forgot about these exercises I might start doing them again. |

You are correct. When I saw that in the raw material I thought "what a great example I am!" |

hmm also you're not supposed to lock your knees at the top ( this applies to any leg exercise, not just this one) since this would put pressure on the joint instead of the muscle, no?

This is an exercise where I believe that locking the knee at the top of the movement is safer than not locking it. Watch this video and see how she slightly wobbles at 0:29: http://www.livestrong.com/video/1453-do-step-ups/That's a recipe for falling down the chair / bench. |

damnnn, i don't want that to happen!
hmm, you need a pretty strong chair then for doing these. i'm pretty sure if you're overweight and using a lot of weight for step ups, a wooden chair wouldn't take the pressure. you can do these on stairs though, right?

if you can get a nice angle on the stairs that can replicate a chair then why not? Should be fine to do them on the stairs then. And yes, use extreme caution while choosing chairs, I did step up with 40 lbs in each hand and after a month of doing them, I started to do another rep, heard a creak, I quickly got off and examined the chair, it was broken:S. Just imagine me crashing down with 80 lbs in my hands... OUCH |

Good and informative video. Are you wearing denim JEANS?  Jeans for this high flexing/movement may hinder range of motion and may in rarer cases cause instability which could lead to injury. |
