Squats Maybe The Only Excercise Needed!!

[Deepsquat]

I have been doing DC traing ..been through 4 squat sessions, ( you rotate 3 exercises , in and out of the routine..so only hit squat 1 time every 12-13 days) and after a couple of near-death exeperiances..I have come to the conclution that I need more then the standard 1 -2 days rest before I train the next bodyparts...Maybe I will take 3 days off next time around.
But my strenght/ repping ability went up everytime ...first workout 425x12 second workout 425x15 third 425x17 fourth 425x18 ...my god the 18 rep set was a horrifying experiance ..so much so I think I will up the weight on that set just so I cant get that many reps`!

Squats are pretty much all I do for legs. Sometimes I'll throw in either stiff legged deads or GHRs, but that's it.

Smith machine squats, hack machine squats, and leg presses are all poor substitutes for barbell squats. Leg extensions and leg curls are just ghey.

Im glad to see people still value good old school training. Its funny how many excuses people come up with to NOT squat.

I'd have to totally agree with the squats issue.

This months or last months issue of Mens Health (Anyone else love that magazine as much as I do?) went into the squat issue.

Seems because of the sheer size of the muscles involved in doing specifically DEEP squats (Butt almost touching the floor with a pause at the bottom) the body releases large amounts of additional natural test and this is said to greatly improve not just leg development but also the development of all other muscle groups, and I would have to agree both from a personal level as well as agreeing with the underlying physiological reasoning.

All in all, they are a great excercise, bulk your legs up like nothing else, and dont blow the knees out like extensions have a tendency of doing. The reason that I dont EVER do extensions.
