  • trouble with viens in legs....

    Im preparing for a competition but for the past few competitions one of the problems i faced was having my legs to come in ripped and big at the same time iv got a pair of pretty good wheels generally about (25 inches each) but when i cut down and go for higher reps to get them ripped i lose that size pretty fast is there a way to mantain it and still get ripped? I do leg extensions and leg curls superseted, deep squats and then leg presses for about 15-20 reps when cutting...

    you could be doing too much. squating and leg presses in the same workout is doing nothing more than overtraining most of the time. pick one or the other, not both. thats my only reasoning. also, as you know because you compete, diet is key.

      i have to disagree ..i don't doing squats and leg presses in same work out is overtraining.. quads are a big muscle unlike a bicep or tricep that you usually don't want to go over 9 total sets.... legs on the other hand you gotta push them and push them hard ...friend of mine meso1 has good saying when comes to legs you gotta pop that cherry and just push them hard or they won't grow
      here is link http://www.fitnessgeared.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=55931 his legs are 28 inches and i have worked out with him a million times here is what he does

      leg extensions 3 sets high 15-20 reps
      squats 4 sets (3 working 1 warmup) 10 reps
      leg presses 3 sets 15 -20 reps sometimes super setting with hack squats
      walking barbell lunges accros the gym 2 sets.

      and yes this while he cutting them up

        ^^thats a lot of volume, and yes, even for quads. only genetic freaks (like meso1) can train like that and get away with it.

          don't think it is to much volume for such a large muscle group it is 4 different movements...
