Your legs don't respond to intensity anymore the way they did at 25.
Pushing harder on leg day doesn't equal better results. It just means:
- Longer recovery times
- Destroyed knee joints
The guys making real leg progress after 40? They're not squatting heavy. They're not destroying themselves with max weight. They're training with:
- Lower weight
- Higher muscle control
- Fewer sessions
- More intentional mind-muscle connection
Mind-muscle connection becomes your SECRET WEAPON after 40. It's not just about lifting - it's about TARGETING the muscle. When you can feel every fiber of your quad or hamstring engaging, that's when real growth happens. Most guys are just moving and pushing weight without any direction.
How often are you guys training legs each week? It’s the area I see most men skip, even though it’s one of the most important 💪
