QUOTE(D_Predator @ Apr 30 2010, 10:53 AM) John,u seriously just do squats and leg extensions? tell me, how manye reps and sets u go?i'm having some problems in gettin a lil bit of cutting at the leg part..but people say my legs are kinda huge and mampat..dats what they say..how do i get that sort of look?any ideas? I used to just do them cuz I don't have a leg press machine at my uni's gym. Now its just 3 exercises for quads. Gets me freakin tired enough. In the pic I was flexing so you could see some definition. Well, I do partials for legs. Squats just go slightly below parallel, no more ATG, Leg extensions 45 degrees down then push back up (cuz I heard from somewhere going full ROM is bad for your knees), leg presses no lockout, thats all. I go 1 set warmup, 3 work sets, 1 pump set for every exercise. 10-12 reps.

Eat more bananas. Seriously it helps. Everytime I cramp I eat 2 bananas, after 5 minutes no more already. Lack of potassium.

Grow some balls and use the free weighs. Assisted push up machine is only for girls. You can do the morning push up. There is nothing wrong to start your day with some pushups. When i have to do public speaking or presentation i will do 100-200 push up in the morning. Then, whey for breakfast. Keep me coming for the rest of the day.
