About 6-15......depends on the exercise and how you feel.

For example for leg extensions and walking lunges i do high reps.
And on Leg press or squats i go lower reps.

All depends on what I'm training for.  This time of year is hypertrophy time so I go between 8 - 20 reps.

depends on the movement and what part of the leg I'm training, quads ususally get 20 reps except for squats where I go pretty low with the reps....

calfs get 12-15 done DC style and hamstrings get a bunch of different rep ranges depending upon the movement I'm doing that day.

Depends. I change it up all the time. Sometimes as little as 5 to 10, sometimes as high as 50+.
