Er, so what was the leg workout?

 

[Daisy_Girl]

exactly! what did you do?

 

[leanchic]

lol sorry i was in a hurry and had no time to post that...im always in a hurry...

1.) we started with teh Leg press....we warmed our muscles up by starting off with lower weight...adn we would do a set of 12 reps, then take turns and then move the weight up each time..i was stared with 150lbs,and by teh end i was doing 200lbs...we worked till failure

* we strectched in between each set

2.) Leg extension machine... this machien is a killer, i dont liek it, but hey i did it...lol... 4 sets of 12 or until failure (wieght increased..took turns so big rests)

3.) Hamstring- leg curl.... did 4 set of 12...took turns

4.) Calfs-raise (using leg press): we worked till failiure....calves were burning!! i lvoe that feeling

5.) Inner thigh maching: 3 sets of 12

6.) Outer- thigh machine: 2 sets of 12

then 10 mins on the elliptical... he usually doesnt do the inner and outer thigh machines..btu since iw as there he did lol

so ya im feeling it today.. it was great.. it was so different then what i usually do....i usually start with barbells, and do squats, then i do lunges with dumbells,, then i go onto the leg press, and and hamstring curl machine, then inner and outer thigh, and then mroe excercised not using machines....i dont wnat to gain mucles size to my legs...i want to lean my legs out soem more...so i like to keep my heart rate up throughout my leg workout and not take such long rests....btu i will do legs with him soemtime sto give my legs a shock. hope this was understandable what i wrote..cause i got to runa dn was in a hurry... thanks

Nah, I hate squats. I know they are good for most people, but I'd rather kick my ass with plyo's and walking lunges and step ups. Luckily, I can get awesome results WITHOUT squats, since they bore the hell outta me.
