The question was i need too build my legs up more than any other bodypart so what do you think the best split would be for me, can i throw in legs twice a week??Male, 38 years old, 5ft 11", 187lbs
Goals; 10k sub 46mins 10 mile sub 77 mins

i was just worried that if i did total body three a week my legs would still be lagging behind, my main problem is that all the time that i have been training i have had lower back problems and have stayed away from squats/deadlifts.My back is a lot better now through a course of pysio and as long as i stretch and warm up properly i have no worries.I have been doing some light squatting and working hard on my core muscles as this is my weak area, with this three day split can i maybe chuck in more core muscles, lower back and legs and maybe do less of the rest of the body.
Any ideas......p-funk....or anyone else..Male, 38 years old, 5ft 11", 187lbs

I would also give total body workouts a shot. Be prepared though, you will have to train through soreness.
The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...
