Ok folks, here is the leg workout we are doing for the next 5 weeks before the show. All exercises are done for 3 sets of 15 reps except where it is noted other wise. The trick is to increase the amount of weight you lift with each set (except for lunges and possibly deadlifts). Rest no longer than one minute between sets and exercises. Here it is...
Barbell Squats (weight I used: 95, 115, 135lbs)
Superset (do exercises back to back): Barbell walking lunges (15 lunges each leg with 40lbs) then Leg extension machine (50,60,70 lbs for extensions.
Deadlift (stiff legged or regular): weight used: 95, 115, 115) These are pretty rough on the low back so it might be better to go lighter and focus on form.
Superset: Lying leg curl machine (60, 70, 80 lbs) then calf raise machine (20 reps at 100 lbs)
Seated calf raises: 20 reps with 35 lb plate. Focus control: 2 seconds up/ 2 seconds down
*Finish this off with 30 minutes on the stairmaster and you're sure to fall over.
P.S. you may want to stretch after this one :)
