well for me I have just come to realize that I will just not have huge legs I am very limited to what I can do.sled-ext-curl-and some times I can throw in some hacks because of the support for the back.Thats about all I can do.I just do drop sets super sets and high reps to help stimulate the muscle.

Squats are great. But a lot of people seem to over emphasize them and neglect leg presses. I followed that advice for about 2 years and looked down at my quads one day and realized they were not as big as they used to be (they had been probably my most well developed muscles). I started doing leg presses again and those have quickly been building the quads back up. variety is key.

wow.

Im just a little shocked that so many people see squats as unnecessary or bad. Maybe this is why I never see anyone squatting at the gym. I see more people using the squat rack for barbell curls.

The only reason for me is because of medical history.otherwise i am old school
free weights and squats.I love squats.I hear you tho barbel curls rule the squat rack at my gym also.
