4 Weeks To Bigger Legs
by Dan Trink -

Leg training multiple times per week may be torture, but it delivers rapid gains in size and strength. Here's how to do it.

FitDre: Great Mike! I just came off a deadlifting meet myself last week. Pulled a new PR of 435lbs. Gonna de-load and then start up again in another week doing 1RM about once / month. Can't wait to see your next article bud! Thank you.

Doug643: why do so many who write about squatting continue wanting to eliminate the quadriceps from doing there job, am I losing my mind or isn't the prime mover of a squat the quadriceps?

FitDre: Thank you Charles for the great article. Many great points. I loved the metaphor of taking new languages in the 9th, 10th grades etc. One thing which would help myself and the readers would be a link or references to the techniques you listed, "rest-pause, Waterbury's 25 along with any other articles you consider worthy. Yes, one can google them but I'd appreciate the ones you give a thumbs up to instead. Thank you!

TOMatoPASTE: ... of these, removing exaggerated arch from my squats and deads has been a recent development. Doing so has allowed me to better activate the core and has also allowed me to realise a serious twisting force that's likely causing the injuries. I think more lifters/coaches need to be aware of those with very mobile spines. I've had several clients improve through this alteration as well! Cheers

TOMatoPASTE: Love the APPROACH to building the squat (the frameworks for learning really do need more attention!) - well done for introducing a concise resource for everyone to work from. However, I've got to add myself to the back arch issues group. I'm glad it's already become such a great discussion. I've been dealing with persistent and debilitating back injuries for a long time now, and my personal cues and philosophies have changed a lot along the way....

jtbrown0511: Thanks CS. I think everyone needs animal protein and she is trying to make the argument that she gets enough protein through plant and dairy sources. I think everyone needs animal protein and can't be your healthiest unless you have it.
