Leg press with your feet low on the platform, feel as though you're pressing most of the weight through your toes rather than your heels, this will target the quads to a greater extent.

If you would prefer to target the hamstrings you place your feet higher on the platform, feel as though you're pressing most of the weight through your heels rather than your toes.

If you are just after general thigh mass then something between the 2 works well, place your feet in a natural position and feel as though you are pressing the weight evenly between both your toes and heels.

I like to alternate high rep / low weight ATG squats with low rep / heavy full squats.

Squats + Lunges/Bulgarian Split Squats = quadzilla

i haven't tried it yet but i heard of this exorcise on the leg press called railroads it's supposed to be legit they say you can gain some serious leg mass. first you start out 10 reps with 1 45Lbs plate on each side then 20 reps with 2 30 with 3 and so on till you peak then work your way back down untill your back to one plate they say only do this once a month and prefferable at the end of your work out. hope this helps [=

Here's a good basic leg routine:

Barbell Squat 4 sets of 6-8 reps

Leg Press 3x10-12

Lunge 3x8-10

Stiff-Leg Deadlift 3x6-8

Leg curl 3x10-12

Calves can be done on a separate day

Leg Press Calf Raise 3x10-12

Seated Calf Raise 3x12

Thanks a ton guys. I had a pretty good workout this morning as far as legs were concerned. I went in and warmed up for 5 mins on the bike to get the joints loosened. I then proceeded over to the squat rack which is always free.

1 set warm ups
4 sets 8-12 deep squats
4 sets 6-12 front squats
4 sets of 8-10 Wide Stance Squats
5 Lunges burnouts

I walked back to my avalanche put my jug of water on the tailgate and puked for the first time since 2 a days!!!!
