Ever since I ditched squats for more friendly/natural movements my strength and size have exploded. I tried for 10 years to perfect my squat form and just could never feel comfortable doing it. My max 1rm with back squat was ~350lbs.

compounds movements like squats and deadlift are not optimal for growth in general, too many muscles involves, not only legs

imo leg press, leg extensions and leg curl are best as they only target quads / hamstring
