yeah lol ...i never do calf raises or any calf work at all lol...but i should do it.....you think it should be at the end of the workout?

good workout...i'd say drop the leg press and do more sets of full squats .... wait for other's comments too.

ok

I see nothing wrong with doing leg press into that routine. IMO Leg press finishes off the legs nicely, sometimes you have some left in your legs, but nothing left in your back thats a good place for the leg press to take over. As far as calves in the middle, well I have seen it done many times and theres nothing wrong with that either. It gives your legs a little oppurtunity to rest to give them a better chance to lift heavier weight throughout the rest of your workout. All and all it doesnt look to bad.

i meant that he must focus more on compounds at his age

push and pull day are good, but leg day you have 3 quad-dominant and 2 ham dominant, I say drop both leg curls and extensions and add a compound hip dominant such as hypers, glute-hamraises, RDL, SLDL, etc.

Yeah I agree with Mike here. I might drop the leg press and go with SLDL. Those are the best for building hams, my own opinion.

I would keep the Leg Press over the extensions, like this:
ATG Squats 3x5-8
Deadlifts 3x5-8
Leg Press 3x5-8
SLDL 3x8-10
Calve Raises 3x10-15

Thats what I meant..........typing gets ahead of my head sometimes.

And hey Mike arent you to young to have that picture under your name?
