    Okay so I’ve been doing exercises lately, and holy hell, does my thighs hurt

    I did like, 154 squats (in total) and uhh, yeah I’m trying to get stronger somehow, gotta rest for 2 or 3 days before I resume exercising again

    • Takes time but you’ll build it up. The best way to judge fatigue on non-compound lifts ( compound lifts involve multiple muscles, e.g: Bench Press, Barbell Squats, Deadlifts ) is to simply feel how fatigue you are and go through a few movements, since on some occasions you won’t necessarily even be that sore and can potentially train sooner.

      A good movement to familiarise yourself with on the topic of legs is split squats since you’ll need balance, muscle control and you still work the legs.

      If you ever need any pointers let me know

          Nah, I wouldn’t need to use A.I for that, I’ve been training for 5 years across different things, so I know a thing or two, not that I’m some super expert, I was just letting you know I’m willing to help where I can.
