I have been working out for 13 weeks. My legs have always been small and my thighs also. I work them.out with 4 sets of Calf raises at 20 reps (80) pounds, leg extinsions at 130 pounds and leg press at 190 pounds. Heres a pic taken of my legs after 13 weeks.

1- Go here: http://scoobysworkshop.com/
2- Look for exercise to give you the results you want.
3- Be patient and work hard
4- admire the results.
Personally, I think you need to jack the weight up until you can barely do 6 or 7 reps in a set if you want to gain mass.
EDIT...13 weeks isn't really that much time to see much mass growth, so be patient.0 -
Thanks for the advice!0

A little bit of running/cycling won't hurt either.0

I'm assuming you want to put more muscle on your legs?
Doing 20 reps of leg extensions is great for muscular endurance however doesn't do a whole lot for muscle growth.
I would say do compound exercises (squats, deadlift, hyperextensions) with heavy weights 8-10 while eating at a slight calorie surplus.
Running/cycling won't build your leg muscles up any more than they already are. Unless you sprinting up hill or something.0 -
Do squats brah.
Rep range for hypertrophy is what, 8-12?0
