LEGS

Hey Guys:
Tell me you your best workouts for overall leg mass.

Squats, squats, and more squats....I guess you could throw leg exts, curls, str8 leg deads and lunges in every now n then too....did I forget squats?

Ditto ditto and ditto Jeremy.SQUATS!!Got to love em....Great all around exercise, good for cardio too,really one of the best exercises in my opinion.But I'm guessing you probably already know that Monty.

Monty,

For me it is a very deep unilateral lunge, heavy weights to the floor. Most on the time on a Smith Machine.

Squats...front and back.

My favorite exercise for legs is HEAVY dumbbell lunges...holy sheet can you feel these suckers burn! But its a good burn...

This is good stuff guys. Keep it coming.

step ups with real heavy dumbells is killer. last time i did that I couldnt finish my leg workout cause my legs were shaking so much after my third set

All I really do are squats, lunges, and extensions (in my home gym). Definitely squats #1. I like to superset them with sissy squats - now there's a killer!

In February MuscleMag had an article called "Squatless Legs" which gave strategies for getting "huge" legs without squats. IMHO I thought it was kind of dumb because - as we know - squats are a staple of the bodybuilders training - due to their mass-building benefits, t-boosting benefits, cardio benefits etc. etc. Except due to an injury, why wouldn't you want to do them???! I know some people don't like them because they're friggin' hard - but that's no excuse not to do them!!

squats are the best for adding size and strength.. leg presses help add size to the inner heads of the thigh, lunges are great.. extensions are pretty good too.

front squats , leg press ,leg extension straight, legged deads,lying leg curls, and never forget calves

Ken, you're right...squats are the best. However, some people do believe that only certain exercises work for them. Especially when developing more mass and definition to the 'sweep'.

i love squatting heavy, but to really get my legs to grow ive had to go with more volume. ive been doing leg presses lately with 20, 30, and sometimes 50 reps and even though im dieting my legs are growing :)

Throw in the lunges too

Monty - absolutely right. I didn't make it clear in my post - but what I meant was that squats should never be excluded from your program (i.e. along with the other vital exercises). Point well taken, my friend!

squats then deads good mornings and leg curl 21's. This combo has been very good to me

Squats, deadlifts, leg press, leg curls & more squats.
