    then

    Squats
    2 warm ups then
    3x8... Reaching positive failure


    Stripped weight to 185 then
    Front Squats(ass to grass squats)
    2 sets 8 then failure at 6

    and finaly lunges with 40lb dumbbells so 80lbs.....
    2 sets of 8
    one set of 7 as I fell on the ground......(thats where my legs actualy cried)

    I tried a pretty killer squat routine I pulled off here awhile back, I still do it every now and then just to torture myself.

    I think it was SC that put it up, maybe?

    Anyway, it goes like this:

    As a pre-fatigue you do Leg Ext. and Seated Leg Curls and complete 3 sets of each. Like so: 1 set leg ext, rest 1 min, 1 set leg curl, rest 1 min, 2nd set leg ext, rest 1 min, etc.

    Then you walk your happy ass over to the squat rack and do 4 sets of 15 squats. Tempo should be 2secs on the way down, pause, 2 secs on the way up. You should select a weight that you can perform 15 reps with without needing to pause for more than 2 seconds between reps.

    Obviously, performing such high reps you'll probably need to select a weight thats a bit lower than your usual squatting weight.

    Try this out. It's killer. Like I said, I THINK it was SC that put this squat routine up on the board..

    I do a similar thing. I have lowerback/hams, quads/calves, and back/biceps.

    i got a pretty damn good leg routine that makes my legs hurt for the next 2-3 days...
    start off with squats i never max alwayskeeping nice form and hitting 8-10 reps for 3 sets

    then i jump to leg press and last set i usually ma with 5 plates for 5 reps and my legs are starting to shake after that
    then leg extensions standing calf raises and leg curls have fun =)

    Try laying face down.. arms to side & having someone grab you ankles & pick up and lift them as far as you can comfortbly over you head and shack them lightly.. You will look like a C shape with your face down & feet over you... I had a f'ed up lower back for 2 weeks till my brother did this to me.. It worked almost instantly...

    I was thinking about giving 1 week a month to high reps 12-15 and one week a month to low rep pyramiding to a 3x3 kind of a thing..... on all exercises... I think that'll be a good rotation....
