Changing my leg workout.
Due to some stagnation and injuries etc my leg workout is struggling. My squatting ability has began to suffer as over the last year i have gradually let my form slip. Now that im focusing on regaining decent form im not able to lift anywhere near as heavy. My leg workout was
squats
leg press
front squats
seated HS curl
Romanian Deadlifts
i was thinking of switching to
Leg presses
stepups
squats
seated HS curl
Romanian deadlifts.
This way ill have pre-exhausted my quads so i wont need to lift heavy for squats anyway.
The only equipment in the gym is a cage, a leg press and a seated HS curl machine. Opinions on this routein would be much apreciated!

If you are wanting to work on perfecting your squat form, squat first. What are the injuries you speak of?

nothing serious. I strained my hip flexors recently. My hip hurts quite a bit and just feels weak and loose most of the time but i have gotten used to it.

They are, and if it feel alright, then i guess go for it, but i'd just recommend stayin away from that considering they were strained. JMO

Yup they are part of the hip flexor region. The psoas connects the lower spine to the legs If I remember...

yeah if you are concerned w/ your squat and its form i would do that first when u are fresh and go down even lighter in weight just to get the correct feel for it and once your form is back on track start stepping up the weight again
