Reply With QuoteStart with squats IMO, leg extentions should not be done overly heavy as they place a shearing stress on the knee, use them for finishing the quad off.
Legs are big and you aren't doing much work for them, but likewise when I was sick I toned it down a bit. If you are going all the way down, and using slow controlled reps, you should feel it.

Leg workouts...or lack thereof
I never seem to get a good workout, and i can't get them to grow, esp. my quads/calves

3 sets of leg ext. 12-10-10 for reps
3 sets of Squats 12--12-8 (205-205-225)
Deadlifts 2 sets of 225 ( only 2 cuz i felt sick)
hamstring curls 3 sets of 10-10-10 reps
seated calf raises 4 sets of 15

my suggestion would be to try higher reps, sometimes I go as high as 25 reps on quads.
I also alternate squats and leg press each week, and you may want to try lunges.
