Sadly due to money and moving in etc etc am back in the shed training and well yes I guess could do front squats but just feels wired...

So how can I train legs at home

I was thinking deadlifts, dumbell lungs, front squats, sited calf raisers(weights just put on my knees) ... Any ideas would deadlifts be enough by them selfs...

    are deadlifts enough for what? what are your goals?

    other lower body workouts are

    hip bridges (why not, you're at home alone but i would just once love to see a dude doing these in the gym :laugh: )
    pistol squats
    bulgarian split squats
    turkish get ups
    running on a hill

    Great suggestions. Also, if you have a backpack, load it up with some heavy stuff, put it on and do squats an lunges. It "comfortable", and adds some nice weight on the legs.

    I barely do weight training w legs anymore n almost exclusively just do plyometrics n it's really worked well for me.

    Jump squats
    1 legged squats
    Box jumps
    Mary Katherine lunges
    Burpies
    I did p90x plyometrics a bunch they use names like run stance squat jumps, many variations of jumping squats
