how can i train legs

[Phemomena]

outside of the gym...

i've been hiking hills, but i'm trying to think of the best way to get some sort of weight routine going.

Sprints.

Do you have 20-40 yards in front of your home?

 

[Phemomena]

yeah....

but do you know me???

I HATE ANYTHING THAT INVOVLES RUNNING! hehe

 

[spatts]

Do you have space in your house for anything as far as equipment?

 

[Phemomena]

not really... i'm freeloading with family for the time being... we have 45 acres and a mule (well, a big dog), but a small cabin that is pretty cramped to begin with... i can probably swing a bench and some free weights of sorts in the downstairs but i'm not really financially mobile right now...

on a tangent... wtf, i have 3 phones around me right now (two cell phones that don't work, i was just looking up someone's number) and a cordless, and all three of them have decided that they want to be charged at once... weird...

Have a vehicle to push? Try taking the tires down to 10 psi, then give a push up and down a dirt road or driveway a few times. It will feel like you just got done squatting.

yeah, i'm in redneck country, there's at least 3 cars that don't work around here somewhere hehe.... i think they're all up on jacks though since they're used for parts...

 

[spatts]

LMAO...sounds like you could live in Mid-Missouri just fine.

Sure there's an extra tire out there you can flip.

If you have a couple barrels, you are a bar and some weights away from a squat stand.

You can try step-ups on a chair or other sturdy surface. Another option is one-leg dumbbell squats; you're basically in a lunge position, but your back leg is up on a chair.
