Leg Day is probably the most dreaded bodybuilding workout that you can do. But it’s also one of the most productive training days for developing a lean muscular physique.

In this leg workout we’re going to get back to the basics with 4 killer exercises that will stimulate muscle growth in the quads, hams, and glutes.

The first exercise is Barbell Squats…

Start off light and do as many progressively heavier warm up sets as you feel you need to work up to your top heavy working weight.

Once you’re at your top working weight, do 2-3 heavy sets, training hard, but still lifting within your means. I recommend that you stop your sets at least 1 rep shy of failure. By doing this you’ll stimulate muscle growth while minimizing your risk of getting injured.

The second exercise is Leg Extensions…

This is a good isolation movement for the quadriceps. You can safely push yourself to failure and beyond with machine exercises like this. Make sure to use good form and try to avoid swinging and using momentum to get the weight up. Once you hit momentary muscular failure you can continue on with partial reps and/or rest pause reps if you like to stimulate maximum muscle growth in the quads.

The third exercise is Leg Curls…

This is a good isolation movement for the hamstrings. Again, you can safely push yourself to failure and beyond with this exercise. Keep the weight under control at all times and really focus on feeling the hamstrings squeeze and contract with each rep. Once you hit failure you can extend the set with partial reps and/or rest pause reps to ensure maximum muscle stimulation in the hams.

The forth exercise is Leg Press…

This is a big compound exercise that will work the entire lower body. When you save leg presses for the end of your leg workout you can get a lot more muscle activation without having to lift excessively heavy weight and risking injury. Keep the weight under control at all times and you can extend the set with partial reps and/or rest pause reps to really pump up your legs.
