Some Of The Best Leg Exercises For Building Mass

[tazmn23]

1:23 is not legs...

[GTSPerformance]

@tazmn23 hamstrings are hip extensors as well as hip flexors. This is a hip extension exercise and is a serious hamstring smoker if you focus on driving your heels into the pads that are holding them.

[ssgokuliu]

like 6 of them were decent the rest were like wtf

[tank200926]

sevendust has arrived lol

[0671085940]

[molonlave123]

i have a thin legs...how long will i see some mass on my legs

[GTSPerformance]

@molonlave123 Train them twice a week. Train your quads with reps no lower than 10 for now, and hamstrings no higher than 10 for now and you should see a difference within a month.

[Fusiondoom]

i aint doin cable pull-throughs in ANY GYM ANYWHERE

[JDiIla]

Great music lol

[Crossss8]

Cable pull through = hilarious

[xCallumm95]

@Alpatt97 i read somewhere that converse are in fact great to work out in because they are just a rubber sole with not a lot of cushioning in them. to much can throw you off balance. i read it in muscle and fitness i think.

[pkidro]

fuck my gym, they play lady gag and miley ciduck ....I want rock goddamn it

[NicFusionaire]

fuck that between the leg cable pull, I don't want it to snap back and take my nuts with it

[mzrealm]

2:32 - That's also how I say good morning to my boyfriend every morning.

[HelsinkiSmashRod]

@mzrealm I wish there were more girls like you:(

[bohemia187]

lol@ 2:29

[chiefmungomartin]

Knees pushing a little too far forward on those lunges there mate.

[go2cdmb]

Thanks for the vid fellas.. Diggin all the 7dust too! Good taste bro!

[Hiyrustrider]

Thanks for the awesome excersises!, finally found the video I was looking for!

[GangstasMind]

this is a fuckin joke... how many exercises/sets are u gonna do.... and almost none of these are "mass"building workouts. maybe strength building workouts

[youngsoldier93]

I wish our school could play some Metal!

[premitotic]

this is ridiculous - your legs are like chick wings

[matt517472]

haha every1 look at 2:24!!!!

[bigdewk]

haha no way am i doing the cable pull thru in any public gym. thats strictly a home exercise.

[pigd1666]

What is the thing he is on for the glute ham raise and horizontal back extension? I have been looking for one to add to my home gym but cannot figure out what the name of it is. I used one in high school and it did wonders for my legs and even abs when doing situps on it.

[pberrios0223]

good video

[Statcho28]

The music is ridiculous!

[kyrowriter]

i clicked dislike simply because of the music...great list of exercises though

[mbleek2001]

my knees hurt watching this..i have knee problems

[hollywood4488]

WOW doin leg workout in Chucks, my feet hurt just watching this.

[goddamfuck]

@hollywood4488 I dig his kicks. The flat soles are great for balance while lifting. I rock a set of black chucks with pinstripes in the gym. Gotta lift in style.

[slizzardman]

@goddamfuck Vibram five fingers all the way man! Best shoes I have ever owned.

[77plummetal77]

[Jibbie49]

Check out IZZY BARISH here on youtube  as he has some great work outs in his home gym. He is 60 and looks awesome.

[wojtek0000]

2:30 haha!

[MrApeShitt]

@wojtek0000 true wtf is that for lol

[thomasinnorway]

your knee is coming too far forward on the lunges. The knee should be right above the foot to avoid added stress on the knee.

[Achilles248]

His form is just fine. He achieves full range of motion in the knee and hips, which is essential for joint health. For most people this means that the knees get past the toes a bit. Not a problem.

This is a great video by the way! I wish I had access to a reverse hyper and glute ham raise.

[mastaboomba]

Awesome video! Very helpful for a lower body noob....

[thesix107]

Legs too wide on good mornings. My legs are maybe 6" apart if that, and I bend real low. I get a wicked stretch, and when I get tired, I can feel my hip flexors working in too.

[GTSPerformance]

If you take a wide stance you'll work the adductors, semitendonous, and semi-membranosous more, which are the inner two muscles of the hamstring that are primarily used for hip extension. You don't take a close stance with good mornings. With romanian dead lifts you would though.

[UNGETABLE7]

Great exercises for overal leg strength man loved the video... BTW do you split legs? anterior and posterior chain? one other thing is what exercises should one follow to hit the hamstrings for strength and how often to avoid overtraining? Thanks for the great post..

[GTSPerformance]

Thanks for the compliment.

I don't split up anterior and posterior. Most of the athletes I train either perform full body workouts or upper / lower splits. If it's the latter, I usually train 1 lower body workout a week or every 5 days.

You'll get hamstring strength from squats and dead lifts. All the other hamstring exercises shown in this video are assistance exercises, which means they can increase your squat and dead lift if done at the right time and performed correctly of course.

[DaRkD3F1AnT]

whats the difference between a romainian deadlift and a clean deadlift?

[GTSPerformance]

you bend at the knees more with a clean grip deadlift. With the romanian, the knees are unlocked but don't bend anymore or any less. All the movement takes place with the hips.

[SinisterSkip]

Want to buy a gym where they play extreme metal and other guitar music :) Killer man.

/jealous!!!

[sinfuldavy0]

It would have been a lot better presentation if you had shown more of your legs. Don't you think?

[GTSPerformance]

Maybe, but the video is about great leg exercises. Regardless of what size someone's leg are, they're still the best. Do you think a guy juiced up on steroids is a realistic role model for a guy training naturally?

[sinfuldavy0]

No. I agree with you but you are trying to market the concept and human beings appeal to certain things naturally. Would you allow Pee Wee Herman to demonstrate a Ferrari? No. I would have preferred seeing the muscles that you are trying to effect

[indusrtial]

why wouldn't you let Pee Wee Herman advertise a Ferrari? have you seen how he rides his bicycle? his a mad man I tell you.

[StrengthCoachDan]

These lifts are great for both mass or power. It just depends on which end of the neuromuscular continuum you're choosing your reps from.

[pascalown]

nice lots of new ideas. relli helped and to ChetCampbell72 no not really beacuase this is more realistic most people watching this video have just started weightlifting so its nicer not to put a huge steroid packed muscly dude to mabye not make them feel like crap? Anyways really good video

[anthonysmith73]

maybe its just me but wouldn't it be a little more convincing if they used a really big buff guy to demonstrate that these exercises build mass...this dude looks like a regular guy who doesn't lift weights....i'm just saying it would make more since to me.

[ChetCampbell72]

Big doesn't equal strong, he could very well have a high strength to bodyweight ratio, you never know.

Look at the Gracie's in MMA competition's past, look at some of the competitor's in Olympic Weightlifting. Female's weighting 60 kilos and putting up 3 times that amount over their heads multiple times.

You just never know.

Plus, if he is the owner of this business, he wants to get the interest off everyone, whether to teach them or to make business which is totally understandable.

[pakishock91]

great video man, but u really only need squats and deadlifts to build overall mass and power. ANd maybe a few other big compound movements for the upperbody like Overhead presses and chinups but the squats and deadlifts are the key to getting big and strong fast.

[ChetCampbell72]

Mass and Power and two different animals, you are either going to go after the neuro-system or the muscular system. I do agree though that the exercise's you mentioned are a quick line to those type's of strength.

[GTSPerformance]

No, that's not all you need. You must train the assistance lifts as well, and unilateral exercises that help stabilize joints, which also equates to stronger dead lifts and squats.

This info is straight from some of the best strength coaches in the world. Do your research. You have one video up that you didn't even make and it has nothing to do with training. Do you argue with your dentist too since you brush your teeth?
