    Yesterday was leg day...ya know; one of those...I'm gonna puke...pass out sorta leg days.

    Could hardly push the clutch in and when I did...leg starts shaking...cramping!

    I think I must of missed the clutch at least ten times in a span of 2 km's.

    i made myself look a right twat y'day.
    did my squats, extensions, curls and decided to finish off with a few light lunges with 60kg on an olympic bar (haven't done em in years), went down on the 1st lunge and my hamstring nearly tore in fvckin two.
    i had let the bar slide across my shoulder on the ground and pressed the other end up to get out. i felt a right tit lol

    when I'm in the groove on leg day, after, i feel like i'm doing the funky chicken walking away. ever feel like yer walking down the stairs and miss a step? that's sorta how I feel. after, i feel real shakey.

    it's a crappy feeling. for about 10 minutes. then after, it goes away, and life is good! never puked though.

    I drive a manual as well, nothing like being pulled over for dropping the clutch when your leg cramps and trying to explain it to a fat cop....

    color me strange with a big paint brush, but I was thinking of the leg thread right at lights out last night,and the anaology that best describes it for me, the shakey feeling I get afterwards is something like this

    it seems i'm burning fuel out of the carborator FASTER than the fuel pump can deliver it from the gas tank

    Makes sense but many here probably won't understand the analogy.

    I know I have worked hard enough if I get a headache. I rarely get a headache at any time, but I do get one on leg days if I have trained really hard .... never with other body parts!

    Leg days as my favorite... I train 'em a minimum of twice per week (though sometimes I train 'em daily when i'm in the bulgarian training phase).

    During the workout is rougher than after.

    I remember once I passed out after a particularly nasty drop-set on squats. We had filled the bar up with a ton of weight... repped til failure, then did forced reps til the negative started looking shaky... then stripped a plate off and repeated... then stripped a plate off and repeated... and kept doing that til we got down to 135 lbs (which, by then, felt like 405 lbs lol).

    I remember racking the weight... and then the next thing I remember, I was looking at the ceiling.

    Good times.

    Nowadays, the most I get is that I see little stars or little black spots floating about between sets.

    I get the calf shakes too... but not regularly.

    The twice a week for legs was a huge factor for my size one year.....I firmly believe they are all because of such intense training!

    The current routine i'm running has me training every muscle group (not at the same time) every 3rd or 5th day, depending on the week. I find it very difficult to train legs 3 days after having trained them, although I managed this week.

    Few weeks ago I trained legs till failure on squats then till failure on leg press. I got the "spins" like when you're drunk and you lay down.... oh boy! I looked like a zombie walking all funny to the bathroom and the moment that door closed it was like the Exorcist... spewing the 3 bottles of water I drank before and during my workout. Fun times
