I recently went from doing heavy squats as my leg workout to a lighter routine.
For about 3 weeks I've been doing my leg day as follows:
Lunges: 25 lbs on each side x 12 then immediately into 8-10 squats
Lunges 35 lbs on each side x10-12 then immdiatly 8-10 squates
Lunges 45 lbs on each side x8-12, immediately 6-10 squats. Followed by another identical set.
This gets my legs and ass burning like crazy, especially when I bust out the squats (I try to do the squats as fast as possible). I also am getting pretty sore off this workout which is a good sign IMO.
After squats I do dead lifts and really feel those in my glutes too.
I used to just do squats, going pretty heavy (which for me is two 45 plates on each side -- I'm a lightweight).
I'd appreciate any comments on this routine, if it's effective, etc.
My goal is to get shredded up! I'm 165-170lbs, 5'9'', about 9% bf.
Thanks!
