Skipping legs like a bitch I see, but that's no concern of mine.
If it was, I'd call you a discogymmer and look down upon thee thinking the gym is no place for little bitches.


My legs are strong, it would be easier to do compared to my upper body.. <_< I played ice hockey, dem quick stop and goes.

still have to work them, you'll regret it on the long run

compound leg exercices are the best at working your core and postural muscles to prevent back pain, keep good posture and overall strength/performance (ex. squat/deadlift)

its not our call to make, live and learn i guess

as for things you should do, pick up a beginner routine (keep in mind advanced lifters arent people who bench 225 lbs, theyre competitional lifters, so the beginner stage can last for around a year, only swap routines when youre unsatisfied with it or stop making progress)

things you should consider are your objectives, whether youd rather work towards a hypertrophy goal or strength gains, when searching for your routine

lifting is a learning process, you'll always get better as you get more experienced, but dont forget legs :D

e/ added examples for legs
