I quit doing squats a couple years ago because I got (what my chiropracter said) was a disk buldge. Every time I try to do squats again I seem to reagrivate it. So I havn't done them in a couple years.
Squats used to be the focal point of my leg workouts so honestly when I couldnt do them, I got really lazy with my legs, and I never do them. Now I pretty much alwasy just do cardio.
I know my legs are really lacking so I want to get back into doing them, but I need a good workout routine that will hit all the major areas without the risk of lower back injury. So far Hack squats on a Machine, and leg presses have been ok, so, this is what I was planning. I am thinking I should do all these pretty high reps say 3 sets of 12 - 15 each for a month or so so I can get the muscles broke back in before I start lowering the reps and upping the weight, what do you guys think?
