leg day.

i dont do a whole  lot for legs, still i feel its enough.

warm up with leg extensions. 2 sets
then legpress 4 sets.
then seated legcurl 4 sets.
then finish off with more leg extensions. 2 sets

felt good, i reached the weight goals i had in mine, progress slowly but steadily. im confident this is all i need, twice a week to get my legs growing.

calves is lacking, dont like the standing calf machine. ill do one leg calves at home.
tomorrow is day off.

i do 12-15 reps on leg extensions

pretty slow and controlled, im not convinced its completely harmless on the knees so i take it easy with it

i do my pes high volume + focus xt combo now which seems to work pretty well! both got the cotton candy flavor and im getting addicted to the smell of it  :D

your leg training is very basic, you should in my opinion split your legs into 2 days. Train Hammies hard with buns(my favourite day) and the other day Quads. In this way you can still do a 4 day split with upper/lower. If you take a girls advice :-*

did lat pulldowns, rows, incline bench, lateral raises

went up in weight on hammer curls, hurt my elbows a little more than usual but boy otherwise it felt good, huge difference from working with a weight i can get 12 reps with and a weight where i have to make an effort to get 8 or 10, the whole feeling in the biceps afterwards is different, pump etc. it feels like its growing right there and then.

i love hammers
I just saw a tip where u keep the dbs on the front on your body, not on the sides

Careful with your elbows-stretch and massage your tris and forearms and wrists

Lastly...where's the kraken?????

ok training day.

but i was pumping myself upp too much before hand and the energy/strength just wasnt there.

thats what you do sometimes i guess.

thinking youre ready to add more weight to the bar when youre really not.

very few people at the gym so cant complain about that.

tomorrow = legs

for whatever reason i skipped legday this week, doing it tonight.

did upper body yesterday.

back
shoulders before chest, usually the other way around but i feel i would prioritize shoulders for a bit
chest

ive heard people train their abs, maybe i should try that sometime  ;)

im not doing that abwheel though, thats painful

did legs.

3 sets of legpress
3 sets of seated leg curl

yes it may not result in 100 percent growth, maybe just 75% but 75% is enough
feels pretty good to go to the gym and be in and out so quickly and not have to feel "oh uh, leg day"

had a break from the gym but im looking to get back - any day now  ::)

here's my new routine 5 sets of 5, three times a week:

row or pulldowns.
lateral raises
bench
legpress
seated legcurls

few exercises to keep it short and sweet yet with only 5 reps per set should keep it interesting to see what kinda weights i can move.
some would argue its not ideal for hypertrophy, we'll see about that  :D
