Why Your Legs AREN'T GROWING (Truth Hurts!)

Having trouble growing those legs and can't figure out why? In this video I call out the most common problem I see when it comes to leg development and it comes back to how hard you're working.
It's a tough pill to swallow but the truth is that most people don't push themselves nearly hard enough to get them to grow and don't use people with gifted genetics as a benchmark because they can walk up a few stairs and their quads & calves will blow up.
Good news is that I show you exactly how I would start a workout off to ensure that it's going to be an intense and painful experience but in the end you'll put size on.
Let me know what video you want next and get after it!

@@starmorpheus thinking of starting push pull legs 6x split this coming Monday your opinion on wether it’s beneficial for muscle growth?

[@starmorpheus]

@@Koppi-te6kq 100% it is. I follow the split with a slight modification: Day 1: Push Day 2: Pull Day 3: Legs + Abs Day 4: Rest Day 5: Push Day 6: Pull Day 7: Legs + Abs Day 8: Rest (1hr Cardio) So it bleeds into the following week, but that extra day of rest allows 3 days in between your exercises, which allows you to go a bit heavier, but is just better for overall recovery. Plus the second rest day is about an hour of cardio. That's usually shadow boxing or treadmill work. You can find a good amount of excercises online for your split, but make sure at least 75% are compound excercises. The effectiveness of Push/Pull/Leg is that you're doing excercises that naturally hit those body parts. So for Push, Benchpress hits your Tri/Chest/Front Delts. Then at least one isolation excercise per body part. Example: //Push// Benchpress - 3x8 Tricep Rope Pullsdowns - 3x12 Machine Fly - 3x12 Incline Dumbbell Bench - 3x10 Side Raises - 3x12 Dumbbell Shoulder Press - 3x10 Hope this helped a bit. There's more in depth information all around youtube and the internet. Look up Jeff Nippard for a solid base to begin. Cheers.

[@Koppi-te6kq]

@@starmorpheus I really like your idea behind the extra rest day, seriously thanks for that I’ll most definitely incorporate that .

[@RauckisTomas]

100% agree with this. I've got big legs, but I used to have chicken legs. I used to squat big weights etc until me and my friend decided to drop the weights down and just go for reps. Didn't do 3 sets of 100, but did 5-6 sets of 25 tripple setting with extensions and lunges and god did that kill us... We were doing everything of 25s and tripple setting with all kinds. The legs were growing so fast like never before and we hated our workouts so so much. I now train with bigger weights and only 10 to 12 sets because I just can't cope with this sickness that I used to feel every leg day, but I do legs twice a week and I'm still managing to maintain a very good size of my legs. Whenever anyone asks me how to grow legs my answer is always the same, drop the weight, forget your ego and just rep the hell out of it.

I would suggest working up to 3 sets of 100. Start with three sets of 40, then increase by 10 each week until you can do 3 sets of 100. Otherwise you could end up with Rhabdo from doing too much when you are not ready for it.

Ryan, thank you for making this video! Couple things I think you should mention to your viewership.... This strategy for shocking the muscle can and should be used for any muscle group that stops responding. Legs are the largest muscle group in the body, so thats why the suffering during training should be so severe. Anyone who is hardcore should be on the verge of throwing up or shitt&ng themselves at least once a month on leg day. This high volume training does not replace heavy lifting. If you want really big muscles, you are going to have to lift heavy weights. Ryan, thank you again for making this video. This is where I send people who ask me how to get their legs to grow.

When I was in jail, between 2014 2018 i used to work in the gardens with an old school body builder he was in his 60s, we made our gym out soil bags and posts for bars and doorways for pull ups , and he always used to make us get a 20kg bag of soil and do 3 sets of 100 if you quit you wasnt allowed to train with us the next day, it was beyond brutal your wholebody screams to stop but the strength gains and progression is wild, we used to do it 3 times a week literally my legs turned into tree trunks and my whole body grew with it I never looked back this was in 2015, this is the first video that's actually said exact same thing. this dudes the real deal, I'm not playing games he knows what hes talking about.

[@jaeggerhead]

That is wild! And i totally believe you. I don't have a squat rack so I am limited by the amount of weight I can clean and press up and drop on my back. Then I grind out the reps until I reach 100 reps. It often ends up being a 10x10 session. High volume squats will reveal your true character!

I’m 37 and I’ve been training since the age of 15. In my 22 years of training I have seen the most results from high volume, high frequency training and calisthenics. I have tried it all but in my experience it’s the intensity of reps that get you there.

[@Matt-gv7yw]

I wouldn't do this every single leg workout. Tbh, it can lead to greater injury risk of your tendons. There are ways to build big legs without treating each leg day as a SAW torture session. Sure, leg workouts should be demanding and arguably are the most fatiguing workout of the week, but sometimes a psycho mindset can get you injured af. High volume style of 4 sets of 10 with an RPE (rate of perceived exertion) 0f 7 or an 8 out of 10, does yield quality gains. Training to failure every single leg workout may not be the best approach depending on your genetic makeup. High volume shouldn't be trashed so much.

But I could only manage 25 reps the first time. So what I did was make the end goal 25 with breaks in between. (Just the bar) for 5 sets Also keep in mind I’m very overweight and out of shape. (I’m 23 stone. About 320lb) But doing this workout has really changed my perspective on low weight high rep workouts. And workouts overall. Iv been watching this channel for a few months now and the improvements I’m seeing in not only my workouts but my happiness with myself has taken a huge leap forward. Yes there are things I still need to work on in the gym but this channel has helped more than all the others put together. Basically what I wanted to say at the start of this comment is.

@Adz K Same man. I've been mixing his methods with John Meadows and seeing legit results as an intermediate. Ryan's workouts kept me growing through lockdown with just 20 dbs and bands, also got a deep mind muscle connection all over.

[@d3athw1sh51]

Tamer Ciftci Of course you’re not going to get massive legs by only doing this. It’s just another exercise to try out. Throw it in your workout, maybe change the reps a bit. I’m sure you look absolutely nothing like him when it comes to muscle size and maturity

[@davidrewerts9311]

@Tamer Ciftci weightlifting is pretty simple and this guy actually tells You how to do it. More sets at an adequate intensity causes hypertrophy. That's also the theme of all his videos. If you are trying to get big, more sets of something that is hard enough. Your muscles don't get "Shocked" they either micro tear or they don't.

Would love to see a video on leg day WITHOUT squats. I blew 2 discs out of my lower back years ago and just cannot go near a squat rack. Thanks - You Rock!

[@CanadianFE]

Sub squats for leg press. Do 100 reps with the empty sled then add 10s etc etc. I got up to 200lbs for 100 steady reps.

I like how I can watch any of his videos and not have to skip at all cause I’m entertained all the way through

Everything he sayin` is true. My legs started growing when I began to squat till faint.

[@vincentcoffey695]

He's right about hard training, and it's the same with every muscle group. The weight and reps don't matter. You rep till it burns and then rep some more. That's how you build muscle most efficiently. Love your work Ryan.

Genetics definitely play a role when you see guys who barely train their legs yet have massive tree trunks. Just like some people naturally have huge calf muscles.

[@cannedcan9788]

That's literally me, downside is that when you're overweight you also store a lot of fat in your legs and ass, doesn't feel good to be thiccer than most girls you see, so until you start working out it's really a curse but when you start working out it's great that you don't have to do too much if you want legs that are solid

I dig your flow, m'man. A few weeks ago, I started doing 6 sets of 50 squats, no weights, just to get myself going. I'll up the ante by going to 100. When I get that down, then I'll incorporate weights. I need to progress slow due to a back injury, but I'll get there. Thanx for the inspiration.
