    Squats
    Leg presses
    leg ext
    leg curls
    calf raises

    No need for 2 squats in one workout. And why do calf raises after squats? That makes no sense at all. Try shooting for 10-12 reps for legs,and you will not be able to walk for 5 days. peace

    i would do 8-10 sets of quads and 4-6 sets of hams and 3-4 sets of calves

    -so no dont bump up i would decrease, working in the 10-12 rep range will not see great strength results. try 6 to your max good form for the first couple sets in each exercise squat, leg press, front squat (3 sets of each).

    Sure,you can go heavy with low reps for squats. But I feel a difference between low reps and higher reps for legs. They seem to grow better. But for strenght gains u should lower the reps. I think 3-4 sets is enough pr exercise.peace
