Im looking to do what alex ariza did to amir khan

[SpecialOne]

and that was converting upper body weight to the legs

what kind of things can/should i do to do this

I dont want to be heavy on top and skinny on legs

any advice on how to do this

i was thinking of just working on my legs for a month, by doing 30 40mins on treadmil followed by leg weights in the gym

[Double Jab]

Sprints, double unders for 2 minutes on the jump rope, jumping squats, jumping switch lunges, and lots and lots of shadowboxing with level changing involved. And thats just a few I like.

I am not much of a fan with working with weight on the legs, you dont need it. These exercises will promote muscle, and train the nervous system to contract the trained muscles quickly, giving great endurance, speed, and explosiveness.

Eat a lot of horse meat...

[BrooklynBomber]

Squat and deadlift, you dont need anything else. Intense cardio is not gonna add weight to your legs though.

Oh and eat lots of meat.

i would do a lot of leg weight machines at the gym, THEN get on the treadmill or elyptical to loosen things up at the end

Machines suck, use free weights to make sure you gain functional strength and power, not just for the looks. Squats, deads, lunges, olympic lifts etc.

[Righthandbanger]

do a whole body routine and things will start to even themselves out all over.



putting weight in your legs isnt really the issue, in fact weight in the upper body probably has something to do with the fact that in general stocky guys hit harder.

you want to focus on strength and not mass. so follow the link and STFU and train

[TheNegation]

Squats
Lunges
Kettlebell Swings
Front Squats
SLDL's
Hex/Trap Bar Deadlifts
Box Jumps
Jump Squats
Wind Sprints
Stair Sprints

Simple and Functional

but you will still need to workout your entire body

PED's will do wonders.
