So, after I asked jtmass what his quads measured because he had a beefy set of wheels, i thought, “why not start a thread that shows leg progress?”. We see it ALL the time here on AM, Upper body pictures only (which, that’s fine. Your transformation may entail upper body movements only) So, I wanted to offset all the upper body pictures and show the Quad/Hams some attention!

May more than likely participate.

I’ve taken measurements as well for accountability so you don’t see me proclaiming “24in” circumference with nothing to verify it against. I’ll get my leg pictures up tonight!

Edit* y’all can flex em or take a picture relaxed. Doesn’t matter ??*♂

Seriously. Great Idea.
It's tough for me to grow my legs. I still hit them first on my full body workout but not being able to squat makes is tough.
I get a little growth on the hack squat machine and a nice Hammer press we have at the gym. But nothing beats squats for adding meat!
Damn I miss squats front and back!

I find I like training legs now, when I previously did not.

Just measured, mine are 23. My legs have been the best growing body part on me the last few months.

Thanks for starting this thread. I just realized I need to work legs.
I actually knew a guy who was built exactly like that. However he had MASSIVE QUADS! He had quadzilla tattooed on his quad and was massive but from his knees down he looked just like that and it looked so weird.
Seriously. Great Idea.

You and me both. You can still build massive legs with leg press though. Your legs muscles don't have a clue whether they are being stressed by squats or leg press. To them tension is tension. You just have to add things in for glutes to get rounded out.
You have always had nice legs John but they have definitely grown a lot!
Them quads, just sick!

Thanks for the mention by the way!

Hmmmm.... can I post one up from before i got put in the boot. It has been almost a year now since I have been able to squat or leg press anything heavy at all and a good 8 months of no squatting, leg press or dead lifts... I have definitely lost size for sure...

Here is what my legs usually look like. I might try to take a pic of them as they are now. I think they are probably still somewhat impressive even with all the atrophy. I am guessing they are probably 25-25.5 right now, and were about 27 here give or take a 1/4 inch either way.

Well, look at all the guys who train legs. S/o fellas. Keep hammering! Next time I’m at the gym and my quads aren’t completely filled with blood I’ll take another picture. I have some decent separation, swear lol

Poor quality pics (tried to crop to hide too much else haha) but maybe you can get the general idea. I know everyone loves the quads but tried to highlight the backside too

Quick measure was a bit over 24” unpumped. I’m not a very big guy tho and my legs are easily better than my upper.

This thread got me curious. Dont have a mirror that goes below my waist but i pulled one out of Frank's book and pulled a couch shot.

A little over 26.5" on the L (pictured), about 26.25 on the R. I suppose all the squats that I have done and absolutely hated have been worth something - like not being able to find jeans or shorts that fit without buying a waist 4" too big and having them tailored.
