    OK, I was confused there for a second. That's a lot of sets. I would go for something more conventional, like 3-4 exercises of 4 sets each.

    ok i read it, you can throw out that entire routine and do one set of 20 rep squat routine and get way better results

    20 REPS, not sets, one SET of 20 REPS, it's from a book called supersquat, pick a weight that you max out on 10-12 reps and do 20 reps, taking three deep breaths in between each rep

    IF you want to pack on size, strength and speed with your wheels then try something like this:

    Squat 12,10,8,6,4

    Leg press: 4x10, for your 5th set go untill failure with the weight you just got done using, then strip a plate off of both sides and go for failure untill there aren't anymore plates on the **** thing.

    Do the same with leg extensions and leg curls except take about 20lbs off each time.

    3-way calf raises (toes together, heels together and toes forward) 4x10

    You should also deadlift and powerclean on your 2nd leg day, if you have one.
