leg training

Today on msn (my homepage).There was a short artcle on slimming down legs for women, i guess it could of been for guys, but thats nor here or there. The artcle basically just covered simple loading parameters for any body part training , so basically start with 1 set of 12 move towards 3 sets of 12 as you get more accustomed to weight training .
This is all fine advice as far as i am concerned but it didn't bother to mention what exercises will give you the best results , i figured i would chime in here.
For legs i think the best exercises are
squats varaitions
deadlift variations
lunges
pull throughs
step ups
glute ham raise
and stability ball leg curls
skip the fluff and get results !

what i am reading

as far as a general diet , what to do to get lean book goes the book i am reading right now "TNT diet" from men's health is by far the best book and plan i have seen . i used a method very similar during my most recent cut , i had let my self get chubby and drop 10 inches in 10 months. Ideally if I could get my clients to eat exactly how i wanted them to to get lean this would be it.
TNT diet stands for targeted nutrition tactics , in short it provides multiple carb cycling routines you can do to provide the best results depending on your goal , it's a easy to follow very effective method .
