Legs - Quad Focused 6/1/2025
Today was a quad focused leg day. That does not mean we took it easy on hamstrings .. we hit them hard with 4 sets. Here is the workout:
- Smith machine squats (Derick is not ready to squat yet so he used a squat machine). 3 sets .. I took them all right to failure, but I did not fail. The focus on was depth and it was outstanding.
- Leg press: 2 sets to failure. Wow .. Wow .. Wow.
- Leg extensions: 3 sets. We took all of these to failure, and the last set was a drop set.
- Seated leg curls: 2 sets, focused on the squeeze to failure. I wold squeeze a few reps, then just push to failure witout the squeeze at the top.
- Lying leg curl: 2 sets to failure.
- Giant set: Cable crunch, LP Calves and adductors. 3 sets.
- No post lift cardio .. just walking today.
We are really feeling these workouts. The intensigy continues to be amazing.
