Thread: Leg size without squats

No matter what your primary concern should be protecting that back until it's fully recovered, although after 4 months it should be. What type of injury was it?

I think what you're doing is correct, start out with light leg work, and gradually build up.

Do what you are doing ,increase weight when you can,train hard,and eat like a son of a bitch,and they`ll grow.Good luck with your back.

It was a pinched nerve. I wouldn't say I'm fully recovered although I'm a hell of a lot better.
I'm just a little frustrated as I know my legs can push more weight than I am giving them. The problem is that my back gives up before my legs have a chance to fail so I can't overload them like I want to. For example last week I was doing my dumbell squats a little heavier than I have been going and at about rep eight I had to stop because my low back was fried when I know my legs could've gone at least 4 more.
I'll continue to stick with it though as my poundages have increased so that's always a good thing. Maybe I'm too impatient. It's good to know that I'm going in the right direction.

thank's Y'all.
