Getting an effective legs workout
I don't have the time or money to incorporate squats and or deadlifts into every one of leg workouts. I'm generally able to once a week but it takes me convincing old football coach that I won't sue if I get hurt every single time. Anyways, to put it bluntly, is it realistically possible to consiste...

Squat: 1 RM Before - 335, 1 RM After - 455 Deadlift: 1 RM Before -...

Good to hear, I've read most of it twice now. I'm pretty sure I've nearly memorized the nutrition section. So far I've simply been trying to start workouts with the warm-ups. Equipment-Wise I'm lacking a whole lot. If I was a little closer I might try and do replacement lifts to make up for what I c...

Maximum Strength - Eric Cressey
http://thefitcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/ms_final_cover_resized.jpg I got this book for Christmas, and just finished reading it. I'm going to wait to actually do the workout plan until I get to College (I'm a senior in high school). Since currently I don't have even close to the equipment n...

Then weights, I have 2 45's, 2 35's, 2 25's, 4 10's, and 2 5's. In regards to the squat, to start it's a box squat rather, which I find to be much easier, nothing...

And to explain the max squat of 430 I had a grueling legs workout 2 days a week for the last two off-seasons for football. Like I had said I decided to take a break from legs for the past few months because I wanted to waste some of lifting time on looking better after football season. Stupid? Yes. ...

Feel free to say whatever you want about the routine, good or bad. It's worked wonders for me but it may lead to early death or be setting me up for inevitable failures that I don't see coming. I'd like to know if that's the case, lol. If it's worth noting I almost never feel sore the day after a wo...

A typical week of workouts
Before I start I'll give you all some background information. I'm a 6'0 180 pound 17 year old. I've been lifting for 3+ years and really enjoy it. Currently one rep max for bench is 305 and one rep max for squat is 430. Also, before I get into things. I just finished last season of high school footb...

What are you going for with your program? If you're trying to get better at sports specifically like most kids that lift at you're age then I wouldn't reccomend this program. But if you're just trying to look good so you can get girls and stuff this should do alright for a while. If I had time I'd t...
