    Holy crap why are you doing so many repetitions of squats? or are you squatting 150lbs?

    Great exercises, and excellent goals, however just about all publications I have studied in Kinesiology suggest that you should not exercise the same muscles every day. #1 reason is over training, or over use injury,( each muscle needs at least 48 hours to recover) #2 adaptation,(you simply get used to it, and it defeats the purpose). # 3 alternating upper and lower body exercises gives you a more balanced workout. Try this, and I'll bet you have better results without all the pain! No Pain No Gain is a myth. Good luck, and stay safe!

    Add some deadlifts, squat thrusts, and planks. The stronger your core, the stronger your legs will get.

    I really like this workout too:

    Listen to what the man said about overuse injury. You may see results at first, but results will taper as the muscles learn what you are doing an you can hurt yourself.
    And I 100% agree with the heavy lifting too. You could be doing 10 reps of a squat with a lot of weight and skip the other 140 for better, faster results.

    I was just wondering about heavy weights. I don't want big muscles but I want tight toned muscles. Some people say low weights, lots of reps while others say heavy weights as many reps as you can handle...any suggestions?
