          Ya, leg day sucks. Pretty much nonexistent but very important as they generate the most testosterone

                  Every gym has a dude that's built like a truck from the waist up.

                  And then from the waist down... guy is a twig.

                  What motivates you??? Don't be that guy. Clearly noticeable and women laugh.

                    Thats the only reason im not squatting 500 right now because of bad knees. Today is legday for me. I guess if you like looking at women in the gym that could serve as motivation.

                      Dont do this a lot. How old are you? This will wreck your knees in the long run. Space these activities out over a week span

                          I actually hit legs 2xs week, though not heavy squat

                          Tennis 4 or 5 days per

                          With proper form in gym most injury can be avoided. Take a good mix of supplements for sure, and lots of sleep, but at 39 I feel this is age where you either stay fit for life or you start to get lazy, which leads to other issues

                                And the more testosterone the more of an alpha male and the longer you can last having sex right?

                                i hear you can also increase testosterone by taking cold showers

                                    Legs are everything. 3 plates on the squat rack are my bread and butter. While all the young blood jerk offs are curling in front of a mirror I'm in the corner of the gym working on legs

                                          Those are 2 exercises I've 1- given up completely on and 2- reduced significantly

                                          Only to minimize risk of injuries

                                          Compensate with alternative leg stuff

                                          Lunges

                                          Pilates too for leg & core strength & stretch

                                              If squats hurt your knees, it is likely you are squatting wrong. Do you squat to proper depth? Do your knees travel too far forward?

                                                Or he has damage to his knees that no proper form will overcome

                                                This isn’t necessarily directed at you, but every time someone says something like that I want to punch them in the face. He knows his body, nearly 40 years old and people think because they’re young and have good knees and back then everyone else must, so if it hirts to swuat they’re doing it wrong

                                                Bot always the case boss, swuats do put Pressure on the knees and lumbar spine even when done correctly

                                                        Press, extension, hamstring, squat, calf raise, 1 hr eliptical and tennis match after

                                                        Looking at burning 2500 calories just w the activity!

                                                        Get a good book for the machines, reading best of Krauthammer now
                                                        Glad you're in shape fats. I used to hate leg day now it's my second most hated day.

                                                        If you're squatting, pressing, raising and extending on 5 max reps, you're penetrating Bo Jackson doing eliptical and tennis after that. (You may beeee??!! )

                                                        Sounds more like a hypertrophy/athletic workout (which is absouletely fine, all depends on your fitness goals).

                                                        I'm doing PHUL now wich is 1. Heavy upper 2. Heavy lower 3. Rest 4. Upper Hypertrophy 5. Lower Hypertrophy 6/7 Rest (or cardio/core/whatever).

                                                        Lower Hypertrophy is destorying me anymore with front squats, lunges, press, extensions (quad and hammy different machines), raises, etc.

                                                        It's growing muscles on my ass and legs I never knew I had lol.

                                                          More like 7. I like to be in shape, maintain some level of strength and the laides certaintly do enjoy it. There's a differene between being gym bro and lifting weights/strength training cardio.

                                                          I have shitty genes. I'd look like a blob. No one even thinkings I'm related to my brother/uncles/father. To each their own though.

                                                          When I see some fat ass at MCds or the sportsbook scarfing down chili dogs and milkshakes it makes me sick.

                                                            Some gym bros online were saying they did these the same day.

                                                            UMMM...penetrate all that. About blew my back out. I shifted my DL's to the 4th hyperropthy day. The rest is light work. I have a lifelong bad back so I can't do heavy DLS after 5x5 5 rep max squats.

                                                            I mean I can but it was dangerous so I'm good on that.

                                                              I motivate myself by looking at pics of people skipping leg day.

He knows his body, nearly 40 years old and people think because they’re young and have good knees and back then everyone else must, so if it hirts to swuat they’re doing it wrong

                                                                  Bot always the case boss, swuats do put Pressure on the knees and lumbar spine even when done correctly

At the gym yesterday I saw squats so high my knees hurt sympathetically. Proper squatting isn't bad for knees generally, shitty squat form is. BTW, I'm late 40s and no problems at all from squat, but I try not to do anything crazy.

                                                                      High squats are sometimes the best option for people with really tight hammys and low back. What happens when they go lower is they get tail tuck because the short muscles pull the lumbar spine under and this puts a ton of strain on l5-s1

                                                                      hobestly though, to your point, maybe those guys shouldn’t be squatting. Lunges are a killer leg workout that are good for people that can’t do proper form squats
