    Bad for knees!

    I'm no expert but I don't see how. If I can't see how leg extensions are any worse than any other exercise.

    Maybe the people who hurt their knee had poor form?

    My doctor pointed the finger at leg extensions for my current knee problems. I had been working with a trainer.

    Even if it's a dudes workout, no one needs chest flies or leg extensions. Period.

    What's wrong with chest flies?

    The chest fly is an isolation exercise, where as other exercises such as bench press, pushups, etc are compound movements that target more that just the chest muscles. Most people will be better off doing mainly compound movements for their resistance work.
