WITHOUT doing squats. I'd like to know your routine and your specs.

I think he's making referrence to the idea that squats provide a boost
to overall growth. Personally I don't consider anyone that doesn't have
some decent sized legs to be 'big', but then again I'm not a fan of the
beach body. Big calves are far more impressive to me than big biceps,
guess I'm wierd Smile.
