I started of with 2 light weight sets to fire up my quads then moved in to 3 pyramid sets with last set to failure. I then continued with another 2 sets of leg extensions with short partial bursts at full contraction. Man, it was tough! Lastly, 3 more sets of partial leg extensions.
After pre-exhausting my quads, I went on with leg presses. 4 pyramid sets to failure on the last. Set a new personal best with 230kg for 6 reps, and of course, STRICT FORM!
No squats today as I decided to do walking lunges and after such intense pre-exhaustion workout, I felt that I wouldn't be able to perform squats well. I had a 50lbs bar behind my back and because my legs were so pumped, 40 steps was enough to bring my quads to failure.
Then after a 5 minutes rest (I think it was a little shorter than that), I proceeded to single-legged seated hamstring curls. Recently, I really like isolating one leg at a time. Gives me a better pump as I will not be able to use my improper seating to swing through the movements. 3 pyramid sets and I finished off with a double drop set with both legs together.
Following was stiff-legged rack deadlifts. I haven't been doing full deadlifts for a while now as I wanna target more on the mass, rather than blood volume. Again, I did pyramid sets with 3 sets.
Final muscle part of the day, calves. 3 pyramid sets of calves raise with the last set being rest-pause to failure.
Last but not least, seated calves raise with only 1 set. 8 reps to failure. I did 10 though.
Another thing, 2 days ago, I went on to MuscleTech's website to check out if they're any new articles posted and I found a new product!
