If you have long legs and you're trying to build your quads, then you may find that it's tough at times to pack on quality quad mass.

Over the course of my own training and coaching career, I've found that taller lifters and lifters with long legs/femurs typically need to be a bit more strategic with their exercise selection when their goal is quad hypertrophy.

For example, if you have long legs, then you might find that back squats and the more "traditional" exercises often preached as being "great" mass builders may not be the most efficient for you compared to your peers.

When considering quad exercises for lifters with long legs, the name of the game is proper exercise selection and execution along with mitigating fatigue while creating high levels of mechanical tension on the quads.

Here are six of my current favorite quad exercises for building mass.

0:00 Intro
0:45 Quad Biased Walking Lunge
2:31 Rear-Foot Elevated Split Squats w/ Support
3:56 Quad Biased Leg Press + Sissy Squats
5:37 Leg Extension + Iso Split Squat

If we circle back to the topic above — this is typically why tall lifters don't get a lot of bang for their bang specifically for their quads when trying to build their legs with traditionally preached exercises like back squats.

In this context, a taller lifter's range of motion and longer legs when squatting can serve as limiting factors from both fatigue and positioning points of view.

In this video, I break down 6 awesome quad exercises that I've been using lately and have been seeing some good quad progress with!
