How to Build Big Legs WITHOUT Heavy Squats

Описание: When it comes to building bigger legs, you have likely been taught that you should always squat heavy and go lighter on the accessory movements. If you have been doing this and your legs still aren’t growing, then I implore you to flip the script and change things up.

In fact, if you haven’t done light squats and high rep squats before, this is exactly rhetorical change that is bound to to spark the most gains by doing so.

Add a few 15, 20 or even 25 rep sets for squats into your leg training and you will see a huge difference in the size of your legs. On the other hand, instead of just doing light lunges and Bulgarian split squats, opt to train these leg exercises heavy for just the spark you need for more leg growth.

Even the legendary “King of Quads” Tom Platz would incorporate these light weight, high rep squat sets into his routine to help build the massive legs he showed on stage.

Take note, however, that even though the weight is lighter and the reps are higher, these sets are not easy by any means. In fact, they are downright grueling. Not only will your legs be taxed, but your lungs as well as you will be breathing hard by the 15th rep.
