Leg Routine (Need Advice)
« on: October 24, 2008, 05:42:30 PM »
I train at home and only have freeweights available.  Ive been training with this routine for a a few months now and been making some decent gains. Let me know what you think about this leg routine and if you think it can be better or if i need to change something etc...  I usually start always with hack squat then switch around the other exercises every week.  Thanks..

3 Weeks (Do this for 3 weeks then switch to bottom)
Hack squat.. 3x8  4,8,8
DB Lunges.. 2x8  8,8
DB Calf Raise(Chair)..3x8
DB Stairs (walk up and down 5-6 stairs in home) 3x

3 Weeks
Hack squat.. 4x6  3,6,6,6
DB Calf Raise(Chair)..3x8
DB Lunges.. 3x6  6,6,6
DB Stairs (walk up and down 5-6 stairs in home) 3x

Are you doing DB hack squats or BB hack squats?  If you have a BB you could clean the weight up and do Front Squats.  For a home workout it isn't bad but you should also do some hamstring work; stiff deadlifts.

you can always do DB squats or some sissy squats, front squats holding a DB in front of your chest and there's BD stiff leg deads. If you have somewhere at home where you can lock your feet in place, you can do him/glute raises.

just some additional movements.

Try squatting 4 sets of 15 with a weight you can only do 10reps. Try to do them in as little time as possible with a 90 sec rest between sets. Basically do a rest pause of 15. You legs will be done!
