Another great quad day boxed off - Little change up in programming with the leg training as I was having a knee issue with the heavier loads on some exercises. So adjusted exercise order and rep ranges to favour a slightly higher rep range while still managing to keep load moderate to high so as to get proper stimulus to the quads. Needless to say the pump today was fantastic felt fully blown. As always POWERED by
@Raptor Labs @Raptor Rep sorting me out with some BPC-157 to fast track the knee into recovery.
Warm up:
5 mins bike
lower body mobility
Unilateral Leg Extension - 2 sets 20 reps very light
Walking Lunges - 2 sets 15 reps per leg
Working Sets:
Seated Hip Abduction
85 x 12
85 x 12

70 x 18
60 x 12
Narrow Stance Leg Press (Same emphasis on tempo here really slowing down the eccentric and pausing in the bottom)
220 x 17

No need to be doing a million exercises for quads with junk volume, just the basics with flawless execution and taking all sets to or past failure is all you need.
