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.....

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** · 10-15-2003, 06:20 PM

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** · 10-15-2003, 06:42 PM

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?

Here's a little summery of my workout..........

U wanted failure so that's what I did.........the last set of squats I got the 3rd rep up barely, well the 4th rep didn't make it, the weight just keep going down and my spotter could not stop it.......so it that close enough to failure for ya.
Feet together leg presses suck........almost lost a nut on the first rep........had to rearange them.......I need them bad boys.

Hack squats..........now they were killer since my quads were already like jello...but hey got them done and moved on.
Stiff-leg DL........never went this heavy before(normally do 10-12 reps).......but that's why it is a leg shocker......felt great and really burned my hams and lower back

Leg curls(I went with the seated since u didn't really say)..........I love these......bro I could do seated leg curls every friggin workout.
ok here's were your gonna think I wussed out.........didn't have time to do the lunges

...........I will def do them next time I hit this workout.
I did this workout thurs. and the hams are still very sore........the quads are alittle sore but nothin like the hams.

**bigol'legs** · 11-06-2003, 08:55 PM

Just do it once... then do your own for 2 weeks.. then do another shocker!!

**bornbad71** · 11-06-2003, 09:00 PM

**bigol'legs** · 11-17-2003, 05:17 PM

**bigol'legs** · 03-04-2004, 03:11 AM

Lunges.. and single leg presses will target that area.

If you look in the workout forum and do a search for "leg shocker" you'll see my thread with leg routines in it.
