    imo if you are fit and healthy and weight train you MUST have deads and squats in your routine...real men squat! lol
    I've had my right meniscus surgically repaired and never had an issue with squats or walking db lunges...I guess I'm lucky because I know a lot do. In fact, my workout partner complains about his knee hurting with lunges and has 2 healthy knees.

    Blown away...although, if you look at everyone's avy pics legs are rarely shown (and yes I'm aware mine fits this as well, but I swear my legs exist and are quite developed)! lol

    Haha, yeah my avatar is the same. I work my legs out very hard, and I believe they are pretty developed. I think they can be developed more though; but then again, I think my whole body can be more developed, lol.

    ha ha found this is the only leg pic I could find on my comp here at work...this dates back about 4 years ago me weighing in at 180 lbs. My wheels have grown some now and I weigh about 200 lbs. at close to the same bodyfat. Anyhow, they do exist! lol

    Damn, M3 you definitely have me beat. I feel embarrassed posting a picture of the one I just took now, lol. Why is it when I take a picture of myself, I never look as ripped as I think I do looking in the mirror? Haha, shit sucks! I am 6'0, weigh 183.5 pounds, and have about 11 - 12% body fat (this is just an estimate that a fellow member gave based on some other pictures). If you don't mind my asking, had you done any AAS before that picture; or is that all natural? I hope to get those striations that you have in your legs eventually. Anyway, here is the picture I just took. I need a little more color on my legs too, lol.

    Yes sir! Good memory!

    I train whatever order I feel on that day. I don't really know until I get to my gym in my basement so equipment is limited. A norm, if there was one for me, would be to squat first one week then last (at the end of quads) on the next workout as a way to keep the weight down slightly and change the feel.

    I hear many speaking about how lunges hurt. Try doing them on a smith machine in a static position and one leg at a time. This way you can keep the working leg forward to avoid the knee travelling out over the foot too far which is where the pain is probably coming from. Hit one leg, the other, then rest.
    Thanks Kel but that's nothing compared to your veiny ass...I'm mean quads! lol Yeah I always use those quad cross striations as a leanness indicator, but for whatever reason here lately my upper body has been looking leaner than my lower...use to be the other way around. None-the-less about to hop on a prop/tren cycle so the striations and veins better pop out! I'll try to update another quad pic here in a few weeks. Got to get me some Kel quads!

    Naw man don't be embarrassed you have some nice size to those wheels. Just keep killing them and they will grow (tan doesn't hurt either, lol)! In that pic I had gone on a strict cut from 200lbs. down to 181 lbs. over the course of about 5 months. I had never really cut before so I wanted to get as lean as I could. I did not use any aas for the cut (although I had done a few light cycles a few years before that which I regret because I had no clue what I was doing). That cut was also considered a prime (a period of low carb, recomp that sets the body up for growth once you introduce more carbs, cals, and aas). I started an aas cycle soon after that pic at 181 lbs. and within the 10 week cycle my weight climbed back up to 200 lbs. while my bodyfat pretty much stayed the same. That cycle changed my physique big time and everyone around me couldn't believe it. So for those of you considering doing an aas cycle prepare and prime your body a number of months before and you'll be amazed at the results!
