    When I use the "Leg Extension" machine at the gym, immediately afterwards, my quads feel like they are burning. Is this normal? It only lasts for a few seconds but it can be pretty severe for those few seconds.

    could be just lactic acid build up, it perfectly normal if it is, how long have you been training with weights?

    Just a couple of months really as I had given up the gym for a few years before rejoining recently.

    emm, I can never remember which are reps and which are sets. But three sets of ten is what I do (I think)
