Nothing makes you feel more like a powerhouse than training legs, which is why it's one of my favorite training days. With bulking season fully underway, the surplus of food and energy helps to fuel your workout, and with a motivating playlist to match, you'll be hitting a new PR in no time!
Following a program that is created for you allows you to stick to a plan, hold yourself accountable for every set and rep, not skimp out on any exercise, and not get bored from doing the same routine day in and day out. Worst thing to do is to just move the weight to point A to point B. If you would want a customized routine created for you, Leave me a message and lets talk about how we can change your work out.
Below is my staple for training legs! Making sure you have that mind muscle connection and you will really feel this leg routine.
Treadmill 20 mins
Squats 6 sets 8 reps
Leg Extensions 4 sets 10 reps
Seated Leg Curls 3 sets 10/15 reps
Calve raises (Smith) 2 sets 10/15 reps
1 to failure
Lunges 2 sets to failure
Decline sit ups 3 sets to failure
Abs
Squats are always seen as the best exercise for training your legs and that's because they activate so many muscles. The squats main focus the gluteus maximus, hamstrings and quadriceps. This is why it is a good first exercise, don't worry if you cant do Squats because of an limitation we can substitute it for another exercise and I would say to swap it for Leg Press, just do the same set and rep range.
Yes! boys and girls I have included calves... To get a better all round balance in our muscles we need to make sure we are training our calves. The reason people find it so hard to get be calves is because its a very high durable muscle, When training your calves you really need to go high in the Rep ranges to get any sign of growth.
