Im training Quads tonight!
« on: December 04, 2007, 07:13:21 PM »
Im kind of bored with my regular routine.

Anyone have any brutal quad sessions that they would like to share. Im down for anything, supersets, drop sets, heavy volume, it doesnt matter.

I usually do  front squats 4-5 sets of 4-6 reps, Leg Press 3 sets of 8-12, Then some Lunges 3 sets of 10-12.

regular squats: warm up then 7 by 7 or 5 by 5
leg curls: 8 sets, start with the highest weight you can handle for 8 reps with a pause at the top, keep on dropping weight in subsequent sets but keep the reps in the 5-7 range
lounges: 2 sets, 25 steps for each leg (50 steps total)

note: you can throw in 3 sets of leg presses after the leg curls if you have enough energy, keep reps in the 20+ range

or, if you are really wired tonight, try these giant sets:

set 1, 4 rounds:
squat, 10, 8, 6, 4
hack squat 12 reps
leg curls 12 reps
standing calves, 12 reps

when done, do 4 set of squats for a single each (optional)

set 2, 3 rounds:
leg press, 12 reps
leg extensions, 12 reps
seated calves, 12 reps

work up to a heavy triple on the squats, no less than 7 sets to get there not counting warming up with the bar.

after that, take your belt off and do 4 sets of 12 with ~60% of the weight you used.

if you can get much else done, i'd be surprised.

I do have a question for you.  Do you get go results from front squats with the rep range you use?  I tend to do a little higher reps but I was wondering if I ought to go up in weight and down in reps.  My form seems to suffer when I go up in weight.

Well I never go above 8 reps with front squats.

The reason being is that your abs, traps and rhomboids do so much stabilizing during that movement that they fatigue quicker than your legs do, therefore ur form breaks down after 6 or 8 reps, which could lead to injury, so i never do high reps with front squats.


******** If anyone else has any training questions feel free to ask. ***************

hey, if you're aiming to train your legs, why not wear the belt? it's not knee wraps or a suit, the thing isn't pushing the weight for you, just keeping you stable to push more weight.

once i get around 80% of my 1RM on squats or deads, belt goes on.

have you ever gone for the 100 rep set of leg extensions-------do this first after warming up and continue with your workout after with whatever else you like to do and your legs will hurt with the pump you get
