try it... every fourth or fifth workout, shock you body and do a few reps at heavier weight.

cool, thanks dude. btw, people don't do this every leg day? if u only do this once every 4 or 5 workouts or whatever, what do some regular good leg day workouts look like? i do what my buddy does, and he said he does sets like this of squatting 8,8,8,8,6,4,2. then leg press, or leg extentions, or whatever else you want to do.

well like, i read about these guys who do tons of squatting, then do like leg presses for like 45 reps, and then like 35, and so on, insane shit like that. Anyone do that stuff? im just lookin for ideas to switch up my routine....

20 sets = over kills and muscles will regress IMO
i know a guy who does like 50+ reps on all his leg shyt and yes he has some massive legs like 30-32's when he is around 6% for comp but i just cant pic it working for normal people..

Every once in a while, going to like 30 reps, 40 reps for each set, etc., yeah of course it works. It works because of the SHOCK value of the workout, it's a "break from the norm", it's not the same old workout that one does week in and week out.
I wouldn't say that these kinds of crazy high reps would work EVERY workout, no, but once in a while to really kick yourself in the (__!__), yes.

20reps every once and awhile is okay. But for me anything more than 8reps is piointless, I trying to build up my legs. Slow twitch muscle fibers build mass, heavy weight is better

Ive done 32+ sets on leg day.
This is 16 for quads and 16 for hams.
Like SC said... your cortisol levels will raise. But if done in a timely manner(and ya dont pass out) it can be fitting.
