Re: Teeny wheels

If it's legs or any other muscle group in my body that I see lacking, I'll hit them twice a week.

Re: Teeny wheels

Whats up with this twice a week noise? I dont mean to insult anyone but If I do my legs as hard as I can one work out a week is all I can do. It takes about 4 or 5 days for the pain to get back to a level that will let me go at it again. You know they have to rest to grow. More isnt always better. Thats my opinion anyway.

Re: Teeny wheels

I don't believe in doing that high rep stuff personally. It doesn't work for me. When you lift more weight the body has 2 things it can do... it can either 1. grow or 2. break As long as you're eating properly you'll grow. For every 50 or so ponds you increase your squat, your legs will grow around 1/2". It's a misconception that low reps don't cause growth. Just look at Olympic weightlifters. They perform for the most part singles, doubles, and triples and their legs are HUGE.

Also, ditch all the fancy machines. You don't need them. Look at me. I stick to the basics and push myself and my legs respond. Back squats (powerlifting style), front squats (olympic style), RDL w/ snatch grip, SLDL on a platform, lunges, etc. Everyone is looking for some shortcut and the truth is there isn't any. I guarantee you if you're squatting 500lbs raw you won't want twigs for legs. Just like if you're pulling 500lbs you'll have back thickness.

^^ this seems to be my method. I have a hard time getting a deep squat though. As well as getting calves to grow.

You can duck your feet out a bit which will help open your hips. You'll still need to work on your hip flexibility though because ducking your feet puts more strain on the hamstrings than the hips.
