My thighs are up 2 inches!

[SofaGeorge]

A few months ago I asked for help here in putting together my new leg routine to add size to my legs. a lot of people were really helpful... so I wanted to post an update.

My thighs are now up 2 full inches.

My routine is:

5 sprint runs before going to the gym (200 yards)

Squats 5 X 5
Hack Squat 2 X 8-10
Leg Press 2 X 20
A couple play sets at lunges (still trying to balance)
Straight leg deadlift 3 X 5
Lying leg curls 3 X 6-15 (6-10-15)
Calf raises 5 x 10-30 (10-10-20-30-30)

Muchos thanks for all the help!

(I'm leaving for a week for Christmas. Merry X-mas to all!)

awesome job!!

have you ever tried step-ups? i would do them with 80s and they would give my quads such an amazing pump, especially after the 5 sets of squats!

Thats a serious routine, I probably couldn't handle half of it

How long does that take you?

Thanks all. The best thing about the size increase is I now have calves that are up to par for correct symetry. I'm 43 and to bring my calves up at his age is a miracle.

The gym part of the routine takes about an hour... but I'm not counting the sprints. I like to do a leisurely walk to the park and from the park to the gym.

...and Per Spatts and Night Fly all squats are ATF.

Most of my routines are based on your 5X5 postings. I've gotten the best results ever from it.

I love to hear that!

Amen. If I didn't do WSB, I'd do 5x5. VERY similar.

Great job, SG.
