Working your legs four days a week is rediculous!!!
And retail “boy” you have a slick mouth but if that’s you really man you are a boy who could’nt hold my jock!
On a real even if you are on aas thats still way to much bro.
If you were on slin and recovering evey other daY then yes i could some what understand your work out.
But really twice a week tops if only on aas it takes your muscles 24-36 hours to recover.
So i still hold to what i have told you and yes i was being sincere.
It just kinda shocked me bro. that you were killing your legs like that.
What are your work outs consisting of reps and what not .
THE JUDGE
Base mesocycle goes something like
day sets X reps X %ofmax
mon 4x9x70%
wed 5x7x75%
fri 7x5x80%
sat 10x3x85%
for the first week
For the second week 10 LBS is added on top of everything done int he first week.
for the third week 5LBS is added on top of the second week.
I might have to edit the added weights just because I also have muscle memory for the first 60 lbs. I was thinking of editing it as a percentage. Something like, week 2 increase by 10%, week 3 increase by 5%. I’ll see how i respond though.
Second Day of intro cycle, My squats were really explosive.
Got comments on some bloat in the face, but I look slightly leaner in body, possibly from the AI.
I’m not familiar with this type of training - it seems too much % to me. But it all comes down to has it worked for you before? If yes then go ahead - training on is training off (generally). If you are just trying this for the first time, my advice would be this: never start a new routine when you start a cycle, or in the middle. You need to know all the variables and be in the groove with your workout… sure you can change up a movement or two or set/reps here and there - but not a whole new philosophy.
You need to get used to a program before you start cycle is all I’m saying. That is IF you’ve never done this before. And I know it’s too late but, me and many others aren’t keen on the front load… but if it really works for you then to each their own.

I’ve never done 4 days a week for squats, but I have trained legs e3d with a lot more volume. Actually my leg training consisted of 3-4 sets of the heaviest stuff i could do for 3-4 reps, then I would lower the weight and do 15 reps for 3-4 sets. I just wanted something proven and more…organized.
The primary goal is adding a lot of weight to my squat, huge legs would be cool too.
I’m not sure how I feel about the front load myself, I didn’t want to add an oral because it was my first time, it was out of stock, and local guys sold for 3 times the price I could get it online.
I then wanted to order prop and do something like, 25/75 50/50 75/25 for the first few weeks with prop and test E, I changed my mind at the last second and got more test E instead. Didn’t want to over complicate anything. I’m sort of glad I didn’t order prop, too much stabbing. I had extra test E so I just front loaded, I read all the threads and saw both arguments, in the end I just said fuck it.
Any suggestions on back training? I can’t really stress the lower back too much because of the squats, so no bent over rows or deads, which are a staple. Today I just did pull downs, cable rows and shrugs. I guess I can do dumb bell rows, and the chest supported rows.
