I have 4 stitches in my leg on my shin, it's been a week since i got the stitches, is it safe to train legs now? ex; squats, lunges, leg press, etc

Not yet: There's fewer stem cells in the tibia especially in the mid portion so healing of your laceration takes longer 2 heal then the face which have many more. 2 start 2 early u can open up the wound. I would wait until the sutures r removed & b sure that it is well healed b 4 u start a lower leg routine.
