Edward Smith Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 guys what are some more leg exercises apart from pistols and hamstring curls?i do mean bodyweight ones. don't get me wrong both of the aforementioned exercises are great and great returns, its just that i do get a bit bored of them and i would like to hit my legs in a couple of different ways. how i said about bodyweight exercises, i can add a bit of weight maybe up to about 20kilos but not weight that you would squat.cheers guys,Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roman Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Personally I use weighted Pistols and Jumping Squats... work really well together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikey88 Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 sprinting will give you could gains in leg strengthSame with plymetrics (plus they are fun)http://www.sport-fitness-advisor.com/pl ... cises.htmlWith all sprinting and especially plyometric type jumps build slowly into them for several weeks as its easy to pick up injuries if you too enthusiastic. Plus dont neglect your flexibility training after training sessions and on off daysmikey88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blairbob Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 lunges ( split squats ), lunge walks, duckwalks ( if the flexibility and strength are there ), depth/height jumps ( with weight ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanH Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 1 legged deadlifts are good, either romanian/stiff/straight legged or bent legged (see King deadlifts-great for glute strength). Step-ups and hill sprints are also good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
