Please critique my leg routine. I am revamping all my routines being that I am spending over 3 hours in the gym 3 days a week.

Smith Machine Still legged dead lifts
Lying Leg Curls
Leg Press
Seated Leg Curls
Seated Leg Extensions
Abductions
Adductions
 
Are you quad dominate or ham dominate?

How wide are you squats?

Why stiff legs in the smith?
 
Quad dom.

For squats feet position are shoulder width.

Stiff legs are a force of habit from wrestling, I have just always done them don't know any rhyme or reason to why now. At that time they helped my double under hook throws.

Stiff legs are fine but why do you do them in the smith machine?

Okay, forget the question because there's no good reason. Don't do them in the the smith.
 

lol no doubt...

Man, do squats, GM's, pull-thrus, reverse hypers, glute/ham raises, front squats, leg press, stiff legs... extensions and curls are optional,

Those are the staples but that doesn't mean do them all the same day. For example,

squats, gm, leg press, pull thrus

or

squats, stiff-legs, front squats, curls

or

front squats, GMs, extensions, reverse hypers

Concentrate on a couple big movements and punish yourself with them, then add a couple smaller exercises.

Keep your eyes straight ahead, talk to no one, and get the hell out.

If you are quad dominant, start doing good-mornings, pull-throughs, glute-ham raises, reverse hypers, and kettlebell/dumbell swings. Listen to HeavyBomber as he knows his stuff.

I haven't tried good mornings as they seem to be a lower back exercise primarily and I do weighted back hyperextenions on Mondays. I will do the stiff legs with out the smith though.

No they're not. They are a glute, hip and hamstring exercise. They are invaluable. Learn how and do them.

I will do that thank you very much for your advice. So how about this for a leg routine.

squats, stiff-legs, front squats, curls, and good mornings. That should hit everything I need correct? Thanks again.
