Just had a pretty hard leg workout and thought it would be good for everyone to post their favorite leg routine. I didn't do it this time but my favorite leg day looks like this:

Squats - 3 x 8-12
Power Cleans - 3 x 8-12
Old School Hack Squats - 3 x 8-12
Leg Extensions - 2 or 3 x 8-12 , last set to failure
RDLs - 3 or 4 x 8-12

I do calves on a separate day

What does your favorite leg workout look like?

Squats: Warm up to working set to where you can only lift the weight 4-6 times, then do a 20 rep widow maker.

Stiff Deads: Heavy ass weight

Those are my two favorite workouts in my log book.

Keep On Liftin Big,
TheWall

I do squats, hack squats, leg extensions, leg curls and leg press. I also do calves on a separate day. I like this routine a lot.

it seems a lot of people neglect their hams. I have been guilty of this myself trying to work on this .Right now I am doing a routine that YM gave me. Thanks YM!

For a great finisher for quads, I found to use a basic leg extension machine, load up some good weight. I usually use like 4-5 plates, kick then out and hold at the top for a few seconds and slowly let it back down. I started doing this and the cuts in my legs are amazing. My tear drop came out within 2 weeks of doing this. Great results for little work.
