    Love your channel! I'm stepping up my leg training by incorporating more heavier sets throughout the workout instead of just with 1 or 2 lifts, and I can already tell a difference. Always been a fan of drop sets, but adding in partials and ISO holds with them is a game changer.

      I did! How would you suggest working on the posterior chain effectively when I’ve had a laminectomy at L4/L5 S1? I used to to very strong in my posterior chain (glutes/hams/low back) but if I’m not extremely careful I can throw my back out very easily. It’s extremely frustrating and disappointing. I feel sometimes that I can’t lift the way I want to. Any advice would be greatly appreciated😊

    THANK YOU for this!! I feel like hamstrings aren't so much my issue, but rather that my gluteus maximus isn't as "big" or "hard" or "round/3D" as I want it to be. My gluteus medius on the other hand pops like a mother. I'm noticing it more as I'm dieting for a show and leaning out; legs and hams are there, but butt is disappearing.
    This has been my leg day workout for the past 4 months:
    Single Leg Extensions 3 sets of 6-10 reps
    Single Leg Curls 3 sets of 6-10 reps
    Stiff Leg Deadlifts 3 sets of 10-20 reps
    Glute Bridge 3 sets of 6-10 reps
    Leg Press- Single Leg 6 sets of 6-10 reps
    Wide Stance Squats 3 sets of 6-12 reps
    Wide Stance Squats 3 sets of 20-30 reps
    Walking Lunges 3 sets of 25 reps
    Seated Calf Raise 3 sets of 6-12 reps
    Standing Calf Raise 3 sets of 6-12 reps
    Standing Calf Raise 2 sets of 20-30 reps
    Not sure what else to do...probably not much during the rest of prep, but maybe 2 leg days in the off-season...with more glute focus? A TON of bridges??? I will definitely try incorporating your tips with the partial reps and added bands..and the "tilt" on the smith machine lunges tip was great!
    Thank you for ALL that you do!! Your advice is truly invaluable.

    Ok Cool, I am following a theory that when lifters did certain exercise/movements as a kid. That when they started seriously bodybuilding those muscle grew faster than others. Sprinters grew big legs. Swimmers grew huge backs and legs. Soccer players grew legs. Pushups daily grew chest and so on. Johnny jackson did shrugs daily as a kid, He has huge traps. Just a theory... I changed my screen name. I was Joe Proctor. We messaged a lot yesterday. Appreciate you responding back John. 😆 👍

Going to start hitting the quads with heavy weights tonite. To see what happens.. I am 51 years old and going to see if my quads will grow...
      Which body parts have you tried this on ??.. Results and how old are you ??.

      I am 34.
      I used to do lots of cycling as a kid. So I don't really need to push my legs hard they stay big.
      Used to do lots of arm work as a kid too hence arms are too bad.
      Have tried feeder work on the long head of my triceps , just pump work every day.
      It grew . And same with rear delts , used band pull a parts daily.
      Then went to heavy work and they grew.

      Medreg1983 Ok nice, i am going to see if i can get some body parts to grow at my age. I have been lifting for years because i enjoy it. And it keeps me young.
      I know about Rich Pianas feeder workouts. And Migan of Team3dalpha on RUclips. He talks about a similar principle with a 12 day lay off. Then start banging heavy weights. There is a study on resetting your bodies Mtor which helps restart the ability to build muscle. 12 days and your go to go.

Do you have any videos with this type training principles for quads?

    Hahaha love that tip for hamstring flexibility. From spending so much time with Dr. Serrano I realise the value of ischemic work for rehab, strength and helping to feel a muscle. I know you've seen some of his exercises. Do you think it is as important for hypertrophy. Just one Example of the many ishcemic exercises. His praying leg curl exercise. Kneeling on the ground curling heels to bum contracting hamstrings while someone pushes down hard. I see some value for this after a kneeling leg curl challenge set shown in the video

I suppose to preserve my aging knees more than anything. Cheers and keep up the amazing vids👍🏼
