Noticed my squats were in a rut.
Heres my typical leg workout;
Squats (4 sets) Reps. 12,10,8,6
Leg Press (4sets) Reps 12,10,8,6
Leg curl (3 sets) Reps 15,12,10
Leg Ext(3 sets) Reps 15,12,10
Made very little gain in squats but went up on all the other excersizes.
The change I made today may help but not sure yet.
The change is to do a 5x5 on the squats but go alot heavier (reduced volume, increased weight).
Leg press stays the same
Add a 4th set to curls & ext for 8 reps.
Considering changing all my Big Lifts to a 5x5 and keeping the secondary excercizes the same.
Example: 5x5 on Bench , shoulder press and dead lifts.
5x5 is powerlifting and reps of 12,10, & 8 is bodybuilding.....not sure if this will work.
