More a weight gain question really...
Of those of you doing weight training, what do you do with freeweights for your leg and glutes? I'm doing squats, lunges, and deadlifts, but finding it a lot harder to build my legs than upper body, which is the opposite to what I want really, as I'm trying to use the gym to get in better shape for riding / possible racing.
There's machines for legs at my gym, but they seem a bit of a waste of time. I'm lifting about 80% of my bodyweight on the leg things I mentioned above (3 reps of 6-8 lifts), so am putting in a decent effort (I think?)
