Leg Workouts

This is an old post...thought maybe some would be interested in it?


RULE # 11 in the gyms I go to is "Don't work legs with Dr. Pain"
I mentioned I had new meat last Thursday (Animal helped me Psyche) First thing the guy says is "ok, make me puke" well I couldn't because he got dizzy early and could finish yhe W/O, he turned white and had to lay down, I finshed what I thought was a moderate type W/O (I will post hardcore next!)

We warmed up with 3 sets extensions, one lying curl, one leg press;

4 sets pyramiding up weight hack squats
4 supersets lying then sitting (no rest) leg curls- heavy- topped at 180+ both exercises
4 supersets dumbell leg curls (no rest)and dumbell (heavy) stiff legged DL's

3 minute break

4 sets 1 1/4 squats (go down, come up 1/4, go down. and come up for 1 rep) we did 8,8,8,6 adding weight

4 sets front squats adding weight(this is were he lost it)
and
4 sets light extensions 40, 50, 60 ,70 reps supersetted with standing and sitting calves (moderate weight)

DP

*******

The word Hardcore is misleading. I can do a simple W/O, maybe just 6-8 sets of squats, 4 each of extensions and curls; and do it with such intensity that I can't bend down for days! But I like to crush people, hardcore in that sense means both moderate to heavy, but a ton of volume.

Starting at 70 pounds, up by 20#. 10 sets of leg extensions (stupid stack only goes to 250) 10-12 reps each
then
1 dropset by 40's from 250, rep out at each weight

4 giant sets 8-10 reps each exercise, adding weight each set
Back squats, leg presses, front squat, smith squat, Rest between sets, but not exercises

4 giant sets same way, lying leg curls, barbell stiff legged Dl's, seated leg curls, dumbell leg curls 10-12 reps each

only 2 people made it that far

then Body master power squat machine 2,4,6,8,10 (someone has to hold these on) plates on a side reps are 10,9,8,7,6

6 sets smith machine calves add 25's each set fotr 5 sets, last one 4x drop set, rep out at each weight

seated calve 4 sets same way but with 45's

I've only done this W/O 3 times 43 sets plus calves, this gym is upstairs, it is almost impossible to make it down with 'no hands'

It usually produces a 6 day soreness!

Damn...I need a training partner like you...I love high volume high intensity leg training but all the jokers around my town can't handle it!



Searching for the right balance...
