Monday: rest day, moderate cardio 25 min


Quads and calves workout:

Went into today's workout not wanting to go real heavy with the squats but to focus on reps and full arse range. So, instead, I did 10 sets of 10 reps starting at my body weight and increasing each set by 5 pounds. It felt great and gave a solid pump. Could have done heavier though. This scheme gave me an idea to ocntinue the 10 set scheme but to increase the weight each time out but to lower the reps. So I may do 10 sets of 8 rep but to have increments of 10 pounds. We will see.

Squat: 10 sets of 10 reps
Leg Ext: 2 warms, 85/8,12
1 leg, leg press: 1 warms, 115/10 135/11
Calf work: donkey, 2 warms, 90/12 115/12,10 drop set

10 min cooldown.

Joe, have you ever tried the Body For Life workout. That is what I am doing right now.

I like some of your workouts and will probably incorporate them into my plan.
