    I've read a lot about how bad these are for your back. It is possible that you're putting pressure on your spine such that it's causing reference pain in the form of a headache?
    So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
    of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
    about another group that actually does something
    to improve their lives.

    I guess that's possible but, how would I know? I've never experienced back problems from doing leg presses, but that doesn't rule out the possibility that I'm doing them wrong.

    I do the leg press with my hands on my knees, I do not use them to push my knees, sometimes they touch my knees other times just hover over them as I am worried if my legs give way or if somethings goes wrong the weights will crush me. I assume this is OK? I assumed since all the weight is on my legs and none on my arms it is OK.

    I saw some guys using the machine, the guy put on a heavy weight and then had his mates one each side of the machine help by pushing up on the weight stack.
