Nice man let me know how it goes!

Great recommendation and challenge accepted. It’s the weak area of my protocol; mostly due to time constraints.

Can I join in challenge using the seated leg press machine? I can't use my left arm at the moment.

Absolutely! Could progress from seated leg press to bodyweight squat, and then evaluate, maybe wear a weighted vest or use a Smith machine. Remember to start easy & tag me on Instagram 😌

What is the progression? 100 reps each time and add weight if you make it? It looks like a linear progression method. How would you progress in order not to stall?

Yes I do 100 reps each time. The key to getting the most out of a linear progression is starting too light. I could probably do 60 kg for 100 right now with a gun held to my head, but I still started with the empty barbell. That way my body can adapt to the demand slowly, and by the time I get to a challenging weight, I'm going to be prepared. If you start at 100% effort right away, you're going to stall very quickly, and your peak won't be as high. That's why I wrote in the article that it's about the process more so than the goal.
