Building Mass

[usafchris]

There is nothing like high rep leg presses after doing heavy squats. I think the key is not to perform only high rep sets. I mostly do reps in the 5-10 range and only throw them in on occasion. It keeps your body guessing and stimulates growth.

Yep I concur 100%.

Of course you were sore, endurance work makes you sore as shit. If I ran 5 miles I would be sore for a week! Soreness is a terrible indicator of building mass. You can gain size doing more than 8 reps that's for sure. The 20 rep squat program is as high as I would ever recommend for mass and that's only if you are following those guidelines. Although someone posted on here about a pro bodybuilder than squats 135 pounds for 5 minutes straight to gain mass.

that was a russian wrestler not a pro bodybuilder
