Leg Shocking Workout

[bigol'legs]

Hollymotherf*&^$shi!!!!!

Ok... Did Ronny's today at the gym. I did not pass out, but came close once. It was cool. Everything greyed out into a small circle of light at the end of a tunnel. I sat down at once in case I lost it, I would not have a big fall.

I only made it to the 9th set. The muscles in my lower back did not have the endurance and pretty much gave out. I found out that you can't squat when you can't stand up. At least I discovered a weak point to fix (lower back). The back muscles just pumped up and felt like they were going to explode.

Since I wussed out on the last three sets, I did extensions, curls and calves to make up.

OK... Legs' mega workout in seven more days.

aww not gonna do em both in the same week? hehe
Good job man... I got another one its kinda like Ronnies but slight different.

O.K., bol just went threw the 2nd wk. of that alsome leg workout...man my legs feel like friggin jello. I think I'm ready for the next 2 wk workout plan. Gotta keep hittin my legs hard and intense...gotta go from think those are legs to damn look at those legs.

Also thanks for the calf workout...did it last wk and will hit it again friday. Just wondering ever done a 2 1/2 minute calf routine...45 degree calf machine(60 secs.), donkey calf raises(30 secs.), hip sled calf raises(30 secs.), and seated calf raises(30 secs.)...this really fills my calfs with blood and they get alittle sore too.

Damn bol, I really like this one. Gonna bust them up again next week. I'm starting to enjoy leg day...never thought I would say that.

Do the squats balls to the floor or about parallel?
Doing this for the next two wks. then I will return for more brutal pain.

[bigol'legs]

just go parallel... so if you think your going low enough go a little lower.. hehe

you guys all seem like you are training for the pump, do any of you guys think you might be over training at all, don't get me wrong I love to train legs and get that huge pump, but all those reps hell big ol legs you will produce enough lactic acid to slow down an army, I have been studying a lot on how not to train for the pump when you work out but it is almost impossible to not overtrain, I guess what I am saying is don't you think it is possible to get the same results with less reps and heavier weight and jost throw in some crazy reps every once in a while, just a question not a insult.

Whatch agonna do.....

[bigol'legs]

hehe these are my normal workouts.. you should see my heavy stuff

hey man did ya ever get a leg measurement in? so ya know if your growing?

Now I've only done one wk. of the squat workout...so do I need to do it again next wk.before the 2 wks. open?

Haven't measured anything since around march...I've always been told to measure the leg 10" from the top of the knee, is this right? I will measure legs tomorrow. How often should I measure my legs?

For some reason my legs get stronger but don't add size like other body parts...my calves have no genetics what so ever...I have to hit them twice per week to do any good.

I like the heavy weight on leg day, but the supersets and higher reps from your workouts have brought new life to my legs. So keep them coming.

[bigol'legs]

Ya hit it up again next week then the 2 open... I measure the biggest part.. but it sounds like 10" is about right.. different for people beacuse of different lengths of legs. Measure 1 a month.

I will change it up were your doing heavy sets.. just right when you should be getting used to higher reps.

Thanks again for all your help big....Your 2k on the sled is my motivation....u got any pics with all that weight on the sled...plus the poor sob's with their body weight wrote on their foreheads.

[bigol'legs]

[bornbad71]

After next week bro....bumbed in responce to the bermich thread.....so others could enjoy the pain of their quads being on fire and looking very funny walking.

Bigol' i've got a question for ya...

I've noticed that hacks are a regular part of these workouts - i usually avoid them because they aggravate my knee (torn ACL a few years ago). Most other lifts are fine, in fact I'm working back above 1K on the leg press (i was proud until i read your 2k...new motivation though).

Any suggestions for a leg shocker that doesn't involve hacks?

[big daddy k de]

im doing it next week!!!!!

[bornbad71]

im doing it next week!!!!!

Which one.............or u gonna do all in one workout.
