You writing is a thing of beauty. And 3 times is too much.

[Bluto]

3-6 months isnt a long time.

train legs once or twice a week for 5 years straight then come back to us and tell us bout your progress.

Once a week,but train heavier and harder, with more intensity.

What do you normally do for legs?

right now i am approaching the end of the russian squat program where you back squat three times a week and although my primary goal is strength so far i have gained almost an inch on my legs so you may give it a shot

as far as i recall the bodybuilder porter cottrell used some drastic methods to bring up his legs up to par, do not remember the details, you may have to look around for his program although i suspect he squatted two/three times a week

good luck

3 times a week my legs are sore for 3 days after training them

^ exactly.........the guy probably just ain`t training hard enough.

you "only" do six work sets of squats per workout with every other workout being "light" so you cannot really compare it to the traditional bodybuilding way with as many as 20 sets

Most Russian training methods are nowhere near anything you see in Western programs.  Low volume, high frequency is the norm for them, and it has a lot of science to back it up.

you should wait three days to train a body part, but you could train legs every 72 hours and that would be fine. make sure to have a day off from the gym at least once a week though. training like that (every 72 hours) is a great way to force gains. since most of the protein synthesis from training occurs the first 72 hours, (in fact the BULK of it occurs within the first few hours after training), its a smart move to train a body part that often.

3 time on 2 weeks is enough, squat press leg curl leg extension will be fine, and deadlift for back.

[Mr. big]

too much
