Tom Platz Legs Training

[@zachwells8994]

The point of starting light. Build your core, build ligaments and tendonds, so that way when you go heavy you don’t blow something, he also stretched regularly...huge part of exercising especially for your joints.

[@tarikartiste349]

Explain more please

[@BryceJohnson98]

@@tarikartiste349 tendons take a lot longer to thicken than muscles because they receive less blood flow than muscles. Working your tendons through their full range of motion and increasing the weight over time will build thick healthy tendons. Pumping the area full of blood after doing your heavy lifts is a good way to force blood into the tendons so they heal faster.

His legs are unique in the entire bodybuilding history, this guy was insane like a berserk Buffalo when it comes to legs workout.

Used a relatively narrow stance right ?

It was a strange thing with Tom Platz. His legs made him famous, but they also, I believe kept him from winning the Olympia. They were so huge as to make his upper body appear small, which hurt him in comparison to others.

[@MrHyabusa1300]

He would of winning against Franco Columbo, but ARNIE had it rigged.

[@noahjones9833]

Which is so stupid, to build up the most important muscles of your physique and be regarded as smaller and weaker for it

[@DOMDZ90911]

Nah he was robbed.

[@torbox3366]

I really dont understand how did he actually lose

[@user-ug5fm4ct9y]

His upper body was small in general.

[@stvillasquad]

Platz didn’t realize his hack squat variation is what made his knee durable, knees over toes guy does something similar and makes money off it

[@Dave_UL]

True that

Many thanks to the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Russia, my Brazil, Canada, Australia, Spain, India among other countries for the immense views. The legends can not be forgotten, this is my homage to them all Dorian, Coleman, Lee priest, Dexter, Phil, Kai, Cutler among many others. Bodybuilding begins with the head and the knowledge to realize the best and the wisest strategy and ends with the HEART to go beyond that last repetition and to go beyond our limits! Thank you friends, share your inscription.

Some of his methods on these movements would hurt just about anyone trying to do them. It worked for him, no doubt about that. But I hope the average person doesn't try some of these styles of the movements.

[@spartacus871]

I had the opportunity this great man in Cincinnati when he did a seminar. A Very humble small giant of a man I say. The majority of people need to understand what physical stress to put on a particular part of the anatomy, especially the legs. Some of the exercises Tom is doing will cause great damage to one"s patellar tendons and joints. Some people are not anatomically suited for squats, therefore has to find the appropriate exercise to build leg mass! Remember, one size does not fit all!

[@thispersonsdad7247]

barbell back squats are universal, stance, bar path, bar height, wraps, sleeves, suits, belts, all can be varied to fit someone individually . The squat fits all my man

[@Wzrdprado]

this person's dad basically the guy just said he doesn't squat so he has chicken legs lol

[@hingemachine]

@@Wzrdprado While there are folks that exist that should not start with the barbell back squat, it is normally just about load management for most people. If you cannot manage the bar, bodyweight and even assisted bodyweight squats exist to progress though. That said, unless you have a specific issue, barbell squats taken though full range of motion under manageable load are perfectly find for most folks.

[@Turnpost2552]

[@johnjohnson-pd3qs]

To me guys that do tons and tons of sets is just insane to me. I use to lift and do 3 sets for every exercise done in my routine. Never more very seldom less. By doing this took me 3 years to get fairly ripped and fairly huge. 10 to 15 reps for every exercise? Nty

[@ironadversity2500]

What worked for you doesn’t for someone else, however I’m the same way.

[@wombat5252]

@@ironadversity2500 I used to always workout like that. 3 sets and that's it. Just recently increased my volume by at least double and I've never had better results. Obviously I've lowered my weight slightly to handle the volume and honestly I hate spending 45-60 minutes on just a single body part but I've never had muscle improvement like I do now. It's weird everybody works differently. I have to train like Jay Cutler - He has TONS of volume. Sucks but it is what it is lol

[@densel.crocker1782]

I agree. Not everyone recovers the same way from exercise. My leg workout was leg extensions to failure superset with Smith Machine squats. 1 set once every five days. I did leg curls too, just on a different day. Back when I was a man before marriage. May all your leg workouts be productive👍

[@trayhawk50]

I’ll contend that earlier in his professional career, his other worldly lower body was out of proportion with his upper body. However, come 1981-and beyond - he had willed himself to develop a damn good upper body (great back as well). To the point where his overall proportions/ symmetry were not a weakness.
