Quads,Hams/Low Back,Calves:

Leg Press - 6 sets
1 plate per side 25 reps  {WARMUP}
2 plates per side 20 reps
3 plates per side 20 reps
4 plates per side 15 reps
5 plates per side 15 reps
6 plates per side 12 reps
3 plates per side 20 reps

Leg Extensions - 4 X 12-20
 
Unilateral Seated Leg Press - 2 X 20 {non-lock,and non-stop from one leg right to the other and back again, until both sets were completed....It`s the Fischer Price type of LP but unlike Hanky I used it as a finishing exercise and made it much tougher by doing one leg at a time,non-lock,non-stop for high reps and increased Time Under Tension.....of course we all know he knows nothing except how to eat junk food,and he definitely doesn`t want to make any exercise tougher to do.

Seated Leg Curls - 4 X 12-20

Hyperextensions- 3 X 20 {bodyweight.....slow and controlled squeezing at top of movement}

Seated Calf Raises - 4 X failure {plus half reps to failure at the end of the set}

Leg Press Calf Raise - 4 X failure {plus half reps to failure at the end of the set}

Got a late start,and there were tons of assholes on the road that should be murdered immediately, but the 100 mile round trip was worth it.......great workout....I`m hobbled !!   :D
