Leg Day Proof You Don’t Need Crazy Volume to Progress
Today’s leg session was short, focused, and brutal in the right way. No fluff just intent.
Warm-up (10 min total)
• 5 min easy bike to get blood moving
• Dynamic lower-body mobility (hips, knees, ankles)
Main Work
• Back Squat– 2 warm-up sets– 2 hard sets to failure– 80 kg → top set at 100 kg
• Lying Hamstring Curls– 2 controlled sets to failure
• Split Squats– 2 sets to failure (slow and painful, as they should be)
• Leg Press– 2 strong sets to failure
• Standing Calves– 3 sets to failure, full stretch every rep
Finish
• Dynamic stretching to bring the system back down
Why this works: I didn’t chase volume. I chased quality reps, proximity to failure, and recovery. When effort is honest, you don’t need endless sets.
If you train legs but always feel wrecked and not progressing, try doing less but doing it properly.
Curious: Do you feel your leg days fail because of too much volume or not enough intensity?
