    GP's power, rep shock - LEGS

    Gopro posted this once before in a response to one of my questions. I see people were asking in the shoulder post so I cut and pasted......

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If you really want to bring your legs up, try my 3 week leg cycle. Its tough, it hurts, but it works...and fast!

    week 1...power...

    -leg press...3 x 8-10
    -hack squat...3 x 8-10
    -leg extension...2-3 x 8-10
    -lying leg curl...3 x 6-8
    -stiff deadlift...3 x 6-8

    week 2...rep range...

    -hack squat...3 x 10-12
    -leg press...3 x 12-15
    -single leg extension...2 x 15-20
    -seated leg curl...2 x 8-10
    -lying leg curl...2 x 10-12
    -stiff deadlift...2 x 12-15

    week 3...shock...

    -leg extension/leg press superset...2 x 8-10 each
    -leg extension/hack squat superset...2 x 8-10 each
    -lunge...1 x max
    -lying leg curl/stiff deadlift superset...2 x 8-10 each
    -seated leg curl dropset...1 x 8-10, drop, 8-10


    I have seen this work wonders on many of my clients. Try it if you dare! Best of luck!

    No normal type squats ? I thought they'd be at least part of the Power week.

    he says that if you want to do them you can switch them on and off everyother week instead of the hack squats

    Gopro likes the hack better than regular squats if memory serve me correctly, like vale said you can switch them off with regular squats.
    Cool

    This routine was formulated specifically for nikegirl. Normally, squats would be added in somewhere. While it is true that I get far more out of hacks than regular squats, I do realize that some get great thigh development from squats. I should also mention that for many years I did standard squats as well...up to 500+ lbs. I gave them up when I finally realized they were not providing me with the leg development I was after.

    Anyway, I will be posting a revised leg cycle soon.
