    I just did squats last night. I stayed light because of a sore hip, but my legs are definitely tight this morning.

    Did 2 sets Monday. Almost didn't get out of bed Tuesday.

    I did one legged squats, went too low and fell on my ass. I think more balance training is required!

    Even better: weighted stepups on a bench

    Or stop acting like a bunch of gurlymen and get your flabby ass on zee leg press.

    I'd say squats and lunges are way harder than the leg press (you can just use a lot more weight on the press) - but I do all of the above in a leg workout. Or did until I busted by knee.... and now I'm doing straight leg raises until I see the doc again on Monday.

    walking lunges with weight better simulate what you will be doing than squats. They require more balance control as well.

    I always got a good workout from back leg extensions. They make my ass rock hard. At least that's what the girls said in the gym.

    I can relate big time. Worked out yesterday doin supersets of 1 minute hard jumping rope right into 415lb double leg presses for 3 sets. Capped it all off with 4 sets of squats and an hour of Squash. I will be strong like bull for the Utah Mini.
