I personally think you need to ditch the powerlifting moves for a minute and focus on some squats, leg presses, leg extensions, leg adductor/abductors, leg curls.
Do that for a year and let me know if you think your legs still suck.

I am a jerk, lol.
But you try hard, so I’d always take the time.
I swear to God I was going to post: “I bet you are a brunette with a ponytail.” on the previous page 
I can’t do that clean grip on front squats to save my life.
But yeah, you already know the answer, you said it yourself… there can be no leg mass if you aren’t eating enough to gain. I’m trying to get up to 240lbs right now, and I can honestly say I don’t want to eat at least half of the food I cram down every day. Gaining can be very uncomfortable. Everybody hates dieting, but in my opinion that’s the easy part.

I think giving advice is only something you should do if you have some knowledge of the subject. Giving an opinion is somewhat different, and having a discussion is different again. In the end, I don’t really do exactly anything that I read from someone on a forum, but I do add it to the research I try to do on a particular topic and if its good advice, you will usually hear it over and over again (not to say that confirms it though), than I make a somewhat informed decision on whatever it is I’m trying to obtain.
At the end of the day, how do you really know who your chatting to on a forum, pics or not (they could be of their brother cousin etc). After a while its usually pretty easy to decipher the good info from the hoards of crap you hear, but of-course, no one wants advice from a beginner. However, if its sound advice whether they are just repeating it from somewhere else or not, how would you know?
But usually you can pick a beginner pretty easy, than again not all so called experts that are huge are very bright, so take what you read with a grain of salt as EVERYONE has an opinion on what works and what doesn’t. From my small amount of experience, A number of training techniques and principles work well, and work different for everyone.[/quote]
I agree i think you nailed it dude. Im a beginner myself and i dont know alot but a few common things like not rounding your lower bak doing sqauts and deads i do know. I think everyone should just take things with a grain of salt like u said
