    Legs out of proportion.. Tips?

    Long story short, started working out 6 months ago, made good progress happy with everything but my legs.. They have always been skinny, and they have grown but my upperbody is growing at a rate that won't let my legs catch up.. Squat once every 4-5 days... Any tips.. Cheers. Sorry bout the pic lol.

    Squats
    One legged squat
    Leg Press
    One legged calf raises
    Lying down calf raises
    Quad extensions

    Dude, if you're only squatting, you're doing it wrong

    That's one of the silliest things I've seen today. I only do squats now and I'm fine with my legs. Depends on your goals and the weight you're putting up. With just heavy a2g squats a couple days a week, you'll be surprised at how big and strong your legs can be. As long as you're eating right and using good form.
