The best way to build muscle is to work it through a full range of motion. This is why ass-to-grass squats are often encouraged. But not everyone has the body mechanics to go that low.
This is where the best resistance band leg exercise you’re not doing comes in, as it provides you with the fullest possible range of motion.
It’s a resistance band sissy squat. You start with the anchor set low, and I recommend using multiple heavy bands like Torrobands because you need enough resistance to hold you in the bottom position without falling on your butt. And you don’t want to overstretch the bands in the top position, risking breakage.
The resistance curve of the bands matches up perfectly with the strength curve of our legs as we are weakest in the bottom and strongest in the top position.

Brignole stuff is really getting popular, too bad he’s not here to see it.
Jim, this has a couple of elements Doug would have liked. One, he was a huge fan of sissy squats and two, this movement is similar to the squat variation named after him.
For those with knee pain, these have been helpful for me. Give them a try and see if they can work for you, too 😀
The progressive resistance of the bands in magic on our joints.
Also don’t wear socks on a slippery floor 🤣
