Originally posted by Floorfiller you know if you wanna get big legs...you're gonna have to do some of the bigger exercises. i mean i really don't like doing leg machines...i like the presses and squats because those REALLY workout your legs. the only leg machine i like to do though is the leg curl one because it just targets it so well...leg extensions are worthless to me hehehe ...but eh...i usually still do them at the end of a work out hehe... but really do some of the bigger compound exercises and you'll see better results

aint too worried about legs, as i feel i need to do more work on the chest first. just dont enjoy the machines, much prefer the hand on feeling on the dumbbells. Will give the squats ago.

Originally posted by Nrg2Nfinit havent tried no 2 lol sounds like something youd put in your car but glutamine is good for stacking i think.. its meant to be stacked with hydroxycut isnt it?

well as long as it makes me go faster its worth the 100 bucks cdn.

glutamine helps you recover faster. so you can workout more often.
not sure about the hydroxycut mate. my friend almost had a heart attack on that.

michael19, i read somewhere, and i have herd from many people that working out your legs helps the body produce some chemical that aids your upper body to grow more. not completely 100% on this one...

yeah this is true. doing large compound exercises like squats makes your body create more natural human growth hormone so it does have benefits..

aye "Spinal column loading" (squats, t-bar rows, deadlifts) produce increased amounts of human growth hormone and testosterone Ive worked out chest 1 time in last week in a half and from the 2 leg workouts ive done ive noticed it get slightly bigger haha. ive also gained 3 lbs

From everything ive read its from compressing the spine not so much a leg motion. I dont think the leg sled would do it unless its one of the ones where foot plate is at bottom and your standing 45 degrees back

well you're probably right then...i haven't read up on it.

and that leg sled thingy is the hack squat machine hehehe

so what leg exercizes do you do floorfiller? i like the machine where your doing squats but you on a 45% pushing away from the ground. it has a nice sized base, so you can adjust your feet/legs in different positions to target certain parts of your quads.
