Title: Leg Shocker that I tried yesterday !!
Post by: Stavios on November 14, 2008, 12:41:38 PM
Ok so early this week I fucked up my right knee while I was asleep.
Don't ask me how the fuck it happened, ubt I woke up in the middle of the night and my right leg was all twisted up.

anyway, I had trouble walking so I didn't want to do a huge leg workout ass I didn't want to injure myself more badly with squats and presses.

so I did 2 sets of leg extension.
I started with a weight that I would use for a maximum of 10 hard reps. then I dropped a plate and I did the most I could do. I dropped a plate until I did 100 reps.
 
I did the same with leg curls after that, and the same with calves raises.

the soreness today is absolutely painful  8)

Try this triset:

Leg Press:  12-15 reps
Leg extension:  12-15 reps
squats"  12-15 reps

The key is to move quickly from exercise to the next.  Preferably less than 15 seconds rest between exercises.

yeah I did something like that a few months back, it's pretty awesome.

I feel legs grow better with more reps or with super sets.
for the upper-body I feel supersets are useless
