David Sandler and Dave Lee take you through an 8 week training program to build up your legs like the pros! Check it out!
Big legs
No other bodypart signifies the ultimate in raw power and muscle.
Anybody who has spent more than a minute in the gym knows that an all-out leg session is as hardcore as you can get, which makes flaring quads, hams that drop to the floor and diamond calves all the more impressive. Plus, there's nothing more ridiculous than a guy with a huge upper body and arms perched atop a pair of stick legs - yeah, that guy. Can you imagine Kai Greene, Branch Warren or Jay Cutler with weak legs? Exactly.
So how do you build your own set of tree trunks? That's where we come in. We've got the ultimate plan to pack slabs of beef onto your lower body. But first, you're gonna have to dig deep, because this eight-week trial by fire will separate the men from the boys (have a bucket handy!). But rest assured, by the end of this program, no one will ever call you chicken legs again.
Phase 1: Building The Base
Weeks 1-4
You'll focus on getting stronger - as this will help you use heavier weight in phase 2 - to place greater stress on the muscles. Think of this as laying a solid foundation for the massive structure to come.
