Just keep doing what you're doing and don't forget the hamstrings! I'm starting from scratch myself from years of blowing off legs and haven't even got as far as you yet... I'd be happy to see the separation

walk deep with them too. i go higher than 90 as well, depending on where in my workout i do them. i feel like i get more out of the dumbells. you want to really slaughter them, supersett those with lighter weight one leg lunges, with your rear foot on a bench, stationary.

I did them this morning, 90 lb was way too light for me, the only problem I had was that my forearm and grip strength would force me to stop. Ill keep working on it tho, it felt much better than doing it with the bb.

I did them after squats. I only got 5 steps on each leg before my forearms were burning like crazy and I was holding the dumbbell by my fingertips LOL.
But as far as my legs were concerned i was fine. I wanted to do 10 and 10 in one stepping but my forearms and grip failed me bad.

hmm, yea. Kinda like gloves I guess, I hate that I cant do deads without gloves. My calluses hurt soooo damn much I have to use gloves, its like I have blisters underneath the calluses.
Ill probably keep trying them out with 90's until and try to get my grip and forearm strength stronger. Im sure at first this wont benefit me, but I think If I can get my forearm and grip strength stronger it will fall into place.
