On the importance of leg day

do an additional leg exercise (cycle calves and hamstrings) every training.

Single leg curls with three second negatives will make that muscle blow up.

Do any athletes do leg curls or calf exercises? Maybe a glute-ham raise. Besides, calves are mostly genetic. Plenty of sedentary women have bigger calves than Lou Ferrigno (before he injected Synthol).

Us stronglifts guys are beasting our legs 3 days a week, the worst part is walking down stairs right after.

You are supposed to add five pounds every workout, fifteen pounds per week. How many years have you done it, and what is your squat now?

Would you guys say leg presses are a decent substitute for squats?

Do the 45 degree sled leg press while you work on squat. Squat very light to work on form, perhaps as a warm up or after leg press. Try a board under your heels. Try front squats. Experiment and eventually you will be able to squat.
