...Periodised mix of volume ramps and deloads with overall volume peaking with fixed loads followed by long deload of total (sets x reps x weight) volume whilst increasing intensity (% 1RM utilised). Same answer for every muscle. LS - pm me an email addy, i'll send you a book to read about it you like? Gratis, amigo

| Re: Hypertrophy in Quads I would go for volume, as I tore my quad doing heavy squats a couple of years ago, and since then it's always been in my head, so I tend to stay away from heavy, volume x good form, should get the legs growing. When Kimberly Ann Jones was my coach,she said her best improvement on quads happened when she used a system called '20's she would have the squat bar at 100kg and do 20 reps at 5 sets, I have tried this and it wrks, really works the legs, and yes they grow. Good Luck. |

I do have abnormally large calfs for some reason and my leg far outmass my upper bod!

| Re: Hypertrophy in Quads I like going in heavy on squats for 6-8 sets, then once I hit my heaviest weight I will half it and go for between 20-30 reps for 2 sets [very little rest time] - before hitting hams and calves. I find this hits both types of fibres and I cannot walk properly and tend to get out of my chair like an OAP after! So, intensity, volume.
