A long-time T-Nations forums lurker, who created an account to ask for some fitness advice.
I want to split my leg training into 3 days for Quads, Hamstrings and Glutes.
-
On my Quad Day, the exercises I will do:
-Trap Bar Deadlift
-Front Squat
-Leg Press
-Dumbbell Lunge
-Dumbbell Step-up -
On my Glutes Day, the exercises I will do:
-Sumo Deadlift
-Belt Squat
-Hip Thrust
-Cable Pullthrough
-Smithmachine Glute Kickback
-Single Leg Romanian Deadlift -
On my Hamstrings Day, the exercises I will do:
-Hamstring Curls
-Barbell Squats
-Dumbbell Romanian Deadlift
-Bulgarian Split Squat
-Regular Barbell Split Squat
On all of these days, I am also planning to do Calf Raises, because calves recover quickly.
I am planning to these days on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays respectively, giving myself time to recover.
I am NOT a novice lifter, I am 6’2’’ and 200 lbs right now. I have been working hard labor all summer, so I couldn’t go the gym as often or keep track of my nutrition. Last year, I was 218 lbs as my top weight. So I guess you could call me an intermediate lifter, starting his way to advanced. I am going back to school this Fall, so I will be going to the gym 6-7 days a week and will be having a proper nutrition
But I still need your advice about this, friends. There are just so many great leg exercises, that I feel incomplete not doing all of them. Better yet, if anyone can offer a better split for my leg training, I will be even more grateful.
This is my first thread on these forums.
