when exactly do you run after lifting? right after? later that day? the next day? I hope you're doing low intensity runs or else it'll take away from the leg gains

do you need to run for something or are you just stating that after legs its hard to run???
I worked them sunday with my crew and damnit they are still sore...It happens I will not work them but once a week for this reason. That is how I get my best growth legs is one of my parts that seem to grow like weeds.
I find that I can train them only twice a month as long as I'm doing my cardio. It really depends how I'm feeling, usually once a week I'll hit them good.
I work the lower body 1-2 a week.
I am leaning towards going to 1/week. I have been hitting legs every four days, but they continuously hurt.
I was hitting them twice a week, but I was loosing a lot of mobility so I am cutting back to once a week
Depends on what your goals are and the volume and intensity of your leg sessions.
If you do them more often your body will adapt and twice a week won't be a problem.
Stretching, rest and nutrition are very important.
Read that again.
Don't even try running, but walking would be great cardio post-workout. Then again, if you did them right, walking won't be possible :) I have my PWO shake and rest for an hour then do the cycle or treadmill for a while at home.
stretching is ghey

It all depends on what your trying to achieve..
Mass ?? cuts ?? endurance ??
You might try to be a little more clear on your goal(s) before getting ultimately confused by reading everyones' opinion on leg training..
Personally though ?? I go twice a week (Tues & Sat.), but my goal is for strength & mass right now.. which could, and more than likely would, change when get'n ready for a comp. Everyone's different boss, your gonna get a lot of different answers, so try to be goal specific.
