I did 1040 for 28 once, after doing hamies and leg extensions too. Machine didn't hold anymore.Starting to go heavier again now might try 1000+ cause i'm in a new gym that can hold more.
Sorry - I meant three sets to failure in total for quads - we do leg extensions followed by leg press followed by either hacks or smith machine squats. We're doing about nine work sets in total for the whole workout - the first on each exercise is usually a reasonably warm-up for 12 reps, the second set is usually done for 8-9 reps with a heavy weight to failure without a spotter, and the final set on ech exercise is usually about 6 reps done to failure with spotter assist to get a few forced reps on top. The we move onto hamstrings and calves - same principles. I've no idea what he used to do with Dorian - we switch things around a lot and I imagine that's what they used to do too.
WowI find you hotter now than I did before. Didn't think that was possible.
You people must actually be 100% gay.No one noticed this lovely set of legs?

Welcome SquadGood to have a fellow straight man in the thread!
Alex, why do you wear boots to workout in? Are you trying to replicate Nassers 1998 look?
I was a dellusionite back then... circa '05. I loved those magnum boots. It did help with my ankles problems.
If that is what you are capable of, why not?On your chest workouts do you stop at half a weight you could possibly do, or do you lift closer to what you are capable of?
Depends on how I feel for that day. But I can tell you one thing, once you've reached a level of development (growth) to the point where you can't develop that bodypart any further, you don't have to kill yourself or keep going as heavy as you once were to maintain it.
How do you know you can't develop that body part further if you stop pushing it?Sounds like a cop-out to me
I've always trained heavy all my life up, I guarantee I've always trained harder and heavier that most (you forget who I used to train with) and for as many reps as I could get with that weight. Even with my training now, not many can keep up even though my training is drastically different. Doesn't matter if you can bench 1000 for 10 reps, squat 1500 for 20 reps, etc,etc there's a point to where you just can't get any bigger. Besides, bigger is not always better. Besides being a smartass, try using some commonsense.
So what you're saying is that you couldn't gut lifting the heavy stuff, so you switched to a lighter workout and claim it's because you physically cannot get any bigger?It's OK Coach, everyone gets old, we understand.
I guarantee, you in your prime and me in mine (maybe even now) couldn't come close to my numbers in any way, shape or form and I'm not talking pound for pound. Now, pound for pound, I would have dwarfed you in quantity and quality. Doesn't matter if someone can bench 225 or 500lbs, just because someone "lifts" more doesn't they're better.
Keep telling yourself that.
why yes it is.. I'm offseason. AND I live in the BRONX, baby. Gotta keep up with the Jones's!
Do you have any other photos on getbig beside the one in the "Gallery of Getbiggers" thread?
am I in that???
