If I'm aiming for 3x frequency on each muscle group, is there any reason to do a squat pattern over a leg extension, hamstring curl, and hip thrust individually?
>>76790761Other than personal preference or saving time there’s not really any reason no.It could cause more in-session fatigue (because you’re doing more exercise) but how that affects your progress is really
>>76790761if you're doing legs 3x a week, you could reasonably program a squat variation day, a leg press-focused day, and a hip thrust day while doing leg curls/extensions after your compound lift
>>76790808Hypertrophy is muscle fiber specific, if you do different exercises each training day you won’t actually get the benefit of 3x frequency.
>>76790814If they all work the same muscle group does that not also mean they work the same fibers?
>>76790761It's all preference. Then again, why do you have to choose? Just do a squat variation, leg extensions, leg curls, and a hip hinge movement (RDLs, hip thrusts, SDLs, reverse hyperextensions, etc) during your leg day. If your recovery suffers, just squat twice a week instead of 3 times.
>>76790926>It's all preference.and i prefer NOT to build squat/deadlift muscles up i want legs, splendid immaculate legs that feel good and look good from every angle bot :D >>76791387powersharting splint into even moar retarded "isolations" - brilliant idea 3 times a week :D why not 13 times a week lol :D
