T-rex mode?

I'll be spamming pic related through the new year, btw

If you appreciate the aesthetic of large legs you should work them

also I think it's important to remember that basically any functional application of strength from your body is going to involve your legs, outside of maybe arm wrestling.

Heavy lifts cause increased testosterone. Thus increasing overall performance in other lifts

>>39696175
you cant have an aesthetic body without training legs

just hit them once a week if you dont care about them too much but people who dont train legs at all are human trash

Same boat as you man. I haven't trained legs all year and they haven't gotten any smaller because they're genetically big. They are weaker though so I'm just going to train really low reps from now on, see if that works for you

yep.

training legs 3-4x a month is fine to be honest. at least you're not being a bitch and not doing legs at all.

if you just want a big upper body, then do lots of upper body. doing legs is detrimental to upper body training, if anything (waste of energy).

yeah i think small legs on a guy looks retarded. so dont have small legs and a huge upper body.

but you can prioritize upper body absolutely. doing legs is only going to take focus away from getting a big upper body.

and this is coming from a guy who loves to squat and deadlift, and has only really trained lower body for long periods of time in the past. (i deadlifted 400lbs with a max bench of 100, dont be a retard like me).

do you know how many calories you burn fukken squatting?

if you do GVT squats every other day and run daily you can burn so much fukken weight

then you start doing 3 work sets of 5 reps with some ab work and deadlifts then oh shit nigger abs

Leg strength is correlated with longevity.

the strength benefits of training legs is youl be able to jump higher run faster and longer be stronger at evrtyhing that requires you to stand etc also people that say youl look like a trex are memeing as long as you train the upper body with the same volume youl look good also big legs makes your waist look smaller so the aesthetic benefits are there

>>39696175
Unless you squat 4 plate and deadlift 5 plate, 99% chance you're just fat. Lose weight, porky.

>>39697048
no squats?

>>39696175
you're probably just fat

but yes the hormone benefits/raising test stuff is 100% meme, it's a tiny temporary increase in test and gh that does absolutely nothing

>>39697399

This is 100x more for homos than girls

Same boat. i Squat 3pl8, diddy 4.5 pl8 and at this point would rather focus on building a big aesthetic upper body than training my legs heavily when they barely even fit into my jeans anymore.

But that doesn't mean that they're the weakest link in the chain of most sports movements. Training legs is helpful for fighting, though. It helps you get a stronger "shot" in wrestling, kick harder, and ads weight to your body without over tightening your upper body (taking away from hand speed or endurance).

>>39696175
>raises test is bro science

nope, its proven pretty strongly, its related to muscle group usage ie testosterone is released in response to how much strain.

since your muscles straddling your spine, hip and legs keeping you upright are much bigger than anything on your pathetic upperbody.

your arms and legs are like 25% of your entire muscle mass, nobody who's serious would ignore the 75%.

according to one of my friends when I asked her only certain girls like guys with big asses

>>39699079

just to clarify OP, there are no workouts that will engage this huge muscle group that gives you proper posture as DLs.

Fat distribution to legs and ass in males is a sign of low testosterone levels.

In other words, you'll look like absolute shit but you'll have a huge ass and legs

>>39696175
Because your legs and ass have the biggest, strongest mucles in your body and you won't be strong without training them?

>>39699492
He shoulda been less dumb and trained legs too.

>>39699492
