Sorry...I read what Daisy had said about lighty working sore areas. I wasn't going to at all, but if it would be good to do some light leg work then I will.

...best results are doing so half way to the next leg workout

Shadow what do you think about working legs twice in one week... I mean like leg press, split squats, and leg extension monday, and like friday leg curl, calf raises, lunges, and even regular squats...?

I do a ham intense wo and then a quad intense wo every 7 days or so....Im gonn ahave to adjust that though

Yeah I think I'm going to have to split my leg work-out into two. I seem to only be able to work-out quads really hard or hamstrings really hard before the other one gives out.... It doesn't take me very long before I can't walk... I tried doing it all on monday and I think maybe I should work half my legs hard and throw in shoulders, and then the other day do a different leg work-out with abs.

Maybe try doing 1 exercise for quads, then 1 for hamstrings.

Yeah I have done that also but I don't seem to get the same feeling (not being able to walk) as I do with 3 targeting exercises per muscle.

I'm not saying don't do the 3 exercises per muscle. I just mean switch them around.

Quad exercise, Hamstring exercise, Quad exercise, Hamstring exercise, Quad exercise, Hamstring exercise.

So this way you're giving each muscle equal amounts of rest.
