As always I began my training session with stretches. Legs are probably the most energy draining rigorous body part to train IN MY OPINION!. After a set of squats I just want to go home and sleep lol. You would also feel the pain when contracting which is what you want to feel when training. Good pain is blood rushing into that muscle as you put tension on it and squeeze it. You don't want to feel bad pain which is pain that feels like you are gonna break your legs or get tendinitis or bursitis. So to prevent injury make sure you stretch and warm those legs up.
Light leg day
- Leg extension machine: 4 sets of 20,20,20,20
- Sitting leg curls: 4 sets of 20,20,20,15
- Standing calf raises: 4 sets of 20,20,12,10
PLEASE! always stretch and hydrate. Work your way up to heavier weights every week or so. Don't try to be Rambo and do to heavy. You must first master your posture/form then work your way up on getting your strength up and stabilizing the weight/equipment first before you go up on weights and adding power. So strengthen that muscle before working it to its maximum potential. You will reduce injury by alot.
