My training partner was sick and I really wasn't feeling motivated walking into the gym...so I decided to switch modes and try a high volume approach for legs and ended up getting a pretty damn good lift in (still sore 3 days later anyway). LEGS Lying leg curls: 7x12 (with added intensity things like static holds and additional partials on the last 3 sets) Reverse hack squats (squats facing the pad on the hack machine): 1x10 135lb 1x10 225lb 1x10 315lb 1x10 405lb Leg press: 1x10 6 plates 1x10 10 plates 3x15 14 plates Single Leg press: 3x15 6 plates 2x20 4 plates Stiff leg deadlifts (facing hack squat) 3x12 225lb Walking lunges: 3x30 Seated Leg Curls: 3x15 Leg extensions: 3x20 Single leg extensions: 3x15 (fucking burned) This was about as full of blood as my legs have ever been. I didn't do anything crazy weight-wise, but I ended up hitting somewhere north of 30 sets with just about all of them being in the 15-20 rep range...so I was f'n spent at the end of the lift.
