Build some killer quads and hamstring with this machine only leg workout from Kaged Muscle CEO, Kris Gethin. ► Kris Gethin's 12-Week Muscle-Building Program: https://bbcom.me/3yDtFod ► 10 Best Leg Exercises for Building Muscle: https://bbcom.me/3vBvOyE ► Shop Kaged Muscle Supplements: https://bbcom.me/3vqE7NJ ► Subscribe to Our Channel: http://bit.ly/2DK5lGD To get the most bang for your buck on leg day, use machines to intensify your focus on the target muscles. Yes, squats are the big-boy move for building thighs, but machines can serve you well if you give them a chance. If quads are your weakness, use machines. 1. Walking Warm-Up 2. Leg Press: 5 sets, 12-15 reps 3. Leg Curl: 3 sets, 10-12 reps 4. Leg Extension: 2 sets, 15-20 reps 5. Hack Squat: 3 sets, 10-12 reps Leg Press This machine has its fair share of critics, but when it's not used as an ego exercise with lots of plates and little movement, it can be very effective at developing the thighs. Place your feet where you feel the quads are doing the most work. For some people, that could be right in the middle of the foot plate, about shoulder-width apart. If having your feet a little higher or lower on the plate works better for you, go for it. Make sure you keep your entire foot connected when you push. Avoid locking out your knees at the top. Slowly lower the weight as far as you can safely. Don't shortchange that negative or your presses won't be as effective. If you reach failure sooner than expected, place your hands on your thighs above your knees and assist with your arms as much as necessary. Hack Squat One of the primary benefits of the hack squat is that you can manipulate foot placement. A high placement allows you to descend farther, which emphasizes the glutes and hamstrings. A lower placement means the quads take up a greater percentage of the workload. It's also easier to use advanced intensity techniques like forced reps and dropsets, because you can change weight quickly and aren't balancing a barbell. Seated Hamstring Curls In his article, "A Scientific Approach to Hamstring Training," muscle-building expert Brad Schoenfeld, Ph.D., conclusively makes the case that for balanced, strong hamstrings you need curls, too. Specifically, the lower hamstrings are activated dramatically more during seated leg curls than deadlifts—even stiff-legged deadlifts. You wouldn't skip curls during an arm workout, would you? Don't make the same mistake for your legs. ========================================­===== | Follow Us | ► YouTube: http://bit.ly/1RSJFa4 ► Facebook: http://on.fb.me/1lomhpr ► Instagram: http://bit.ly/1LzBxab ► Twitter: http://bit.ly/1RSJQlL ► Google+: http://bit.ly/1NRe8qu ► Pinterest: http://bit.ly/1OOZgY4 ► Spotify: http://spoti.fi/1NRebm0 We are Bodybuilding.com.

In this timeless pre-exhaust lower-body workout, you'll frontload the volume so you can get the most out of some hard squats at the end. Build your legs the old-school way at Muscle Beach. ► Shop Shop Muscle Beach Nutrition Supplements: https://bbcom.me/2E2lKZz ► All Access 7-Day Free Trial: https://bbcom.me/2E09Or9 When you visit a historic, iconic gym like Muscle Beach Venice, in California, it can be tempting to simply stand along the sidelines and watch. At this gym, unlike anywhere else in the world, athletes are onstage 365 days a year, many doing crazy stunts on the pull-up bars or tossing around weights to earn applause from bystanders. But on the flipside, the great physiques of Muscle Beach's past were forged through hard work, and hard workouts, on the simple machines and free weights along the boardwalk. And the best tribute you can give to bodybuilding history is to fearlessly step up and get under the bar yourself. That's the route that Gavin Matthews, a Muscle Beach Nutrition athlete, takes on his high-volume leg day. There's nothing exotic in this workout. It's all time-tested movements like the leg press, hack squat, lunge, and squat, in a classic pre-exhaust model. You won't need more than 45-50 minutes to knock the whole thing out if you keep the rest periods short, but it'll be the most intense 45 minutes of your week. Don't expect anyone to clap when you finish that last set of squats with a weight far below your max. But expect to feel like you've accomplished something, and like walking to the locker room is a serious challenge. | The Muscle Beach Leg Workout | 1. Leg Press: 4 sets, 20 reps 2. Hack Squat: 4 sets, 15 reps 3. Dumbbell Walking Lunge: 4 sets, 15 reps 4. Giant Set a. Stiff-Legged Dumbbell Deadlift: 4 sets, 10 reps b. Dumbbell Sumo Squat: 4 sets, 15 reps 5. Barbell Squats: 3 sets, to failure | Leg Press | "This is going to warm up all of our joints, our hips, our knees, going to get blood flow to the glutes, the hamstrings, and the quads," Matthews says. But don't just toss on a plate and go to town for 20 reps. Matthews has a very specific protocol in mind. Start by doing 5 reps with your feet wide on the platform and a slow, controlled pace of 3-second negatives and 3-second concentric contractions. Then, immediately move your feet to a neutral, hip-width stance and do another 5 reps focusing on 5-second negatives with explosive concentrics. Then, move your feet to the middle of the platform, in a narrow stance, and do the last 10 reps, focusing on keeping the muscle contracted the whole time. This is pure time under tension, so no locking out those knees! Add weight each set if you can, and rest for no more than a minute between sets. "Keep fighting through it and pump all that blood into that muscle," Matthews says. "That way, it'll warm you up for the next exercise." | Hack Squat | Unlike the leg press, where you were alternating tempos and stances, you'll just hit your reps here with perfect, identical form. "Keep a neutral to narrow stance, focusing more on pressing through the midline of our toes down to our heels, pushing all through our quads to pump them up," Matthews says. "Push through the ball of the foot. Keep the chest out and the back flat on the pad. Focus all your attention with the machine just on the muscle you're working." As they get fatigued, many lifters find they end up on their tippy-toes toward the end of their sets on the hack squat, but Matthews says to focus on staying flat-footed. If these burn your quads like crazy, you're on the right track. | Muscle Beach Nutrition Supplements | ► CRTN-3: https://bbcom.me/2E0a1dV ► 100% All-Pro: https://bbcom.me/2E0aehd ► Pre-Train: https://bbcom.me/2DYPYfG ► Premium Shaker: https://bbcom.me/2E24VxP ► Fill-N-Go Funnel: https://bbcom.me/2E3VbD5 ========================================­===== | Follow Us | ► Twitch: http://bit.ly/2q1dttE ► YouTube: http://bit.ly/1RSJFa4 ► Facebook: http://on.fb.me/1lomhpr ► Instagram: http://bit.ly/1LzBxab ► Twitter: http://bit.ly/1RSJQlL ► Google+: http://bit.ly/1NRe8qu ► Pinterest: http://bit.ly/1OOZgY4 ► Spotify: http://spoti.fi/1NRebm0 We are Bodybuilding.com.

Get big quads by applying these FST-7 training concepts from Hany Rambod & Jeremy Buendia's FST-7 to your next leg workout. ► Hany Rambod's FST-7 Training Program: https://bbcom.me/3vdzbf9 ► Subscribe to our channel: http://bit.ly/2DK5lGD The early days of Hany Rambod's FST-7: Big and Ripped are all about finding your feet. FST-7 is a style of training that demands a level of intensity few lifters are accustomed to in the gym. During your initial workouts, the thought of maintaining that intensity during a long 7 sets on your last movement—after multiple heavy sets of other movements—may seem terrifying. If you're unaccustomed to FST-7, or if you're a beginning or intermediate lifter, Rambod recommends setting aside any hopes of hitting all 7 FST sets. Aim for 4, and expect even those to make you more sore than you've ever been in your life. Equally important to how many sets you do in the FST sets is consistently doing everything else you should in this program. That means crushing your cardio, hitting abs twice a week, staying on top of your meals and supplements, and nailing every rep of every other movement in the program. Remember: Any time you see the words "7 sets" in the programming, that indicates an FST-7 set. For those sets, keep rest time minimal, such as 30-45 seconds, and whenever possible, flex the target muscle for 5-10 seconds during the rest period. Hany "Pro Creator" Rambod's FST-7 Training System has helped win more than 10 Olympia titles for his clients. Train at a pro level with Rambod in this intense 8-week program to mold jaw-dropping size and definition. 1. Leg Press: 2 sets, 10-15 reps 2. Triset a. Leg Press: 7 sets, 15-20 reps (no rest) b. Dumbbell Walking Lunge: 7 sets, 24-30 reps (alternating, 12-15 reps per side, no rest) c. Leg Extension: Flex your quads for 5-10 seconds during each rest period. 7 sets, 15-20 reps (rest 30 sec. ) 3. Barbell Front Squat: 4 sets, 12-15 reps (rest 2 min.) 4. Lying Leg Curl: Perform between 4 and 7 sets, depending on your experience level. Flex your hamstrings for 5-10 seconds during each rest period. 7 sets, 12-15 reps (rest 30 sec. ) 5. Standing Cable Leg Curl: 4 sets, 12-15 reps (each leg) 6. Seated Leg Curl: 4 sets, 12-15 reps 7. Standing Calf Raise: Perform between 4 and 7 sets, depending on your experience level. Flex your calves for 5-10 seconds during each rest period. 7 sets, 12-15 reps (rest 30 sec. ) 8. Weighted Donkey Calf Raise: 4 sets, 12-15 reps (rest 90 sec. ) 9. Seated Calf Raise: 4 sets, 12-15 reps (rest 90 sec. ) Hany Rambod's Tips • Back squat: This is the big daddy of all compound movements. Keep your head level and your back as straight as possible. Your feet should be pointed straight ahead, slightly wider than shoulder width. The goal is to use maximum weight, so don't go lower than parallel. • Hack squat: Keep your feet shoulder-width apart and toes pointed straight ahead to hit the entire quad area. • Stiff-leg deadlift: Arch your back to reduce strain on the lower back and contract the hams at the top of the movement. • Standing calf raise: Two big mistakes with this exercise that I see all the time are doing it too fast and not using a full range of motion. Quick, jerky half reps won't produce results. Do slow, controlled movements and hold the contracted position for 2-3 seconds. | Olympia-Level Training | FST-7 is Fascia Stretch Training, a discipline designed specifically to build a stage-ready physique that dominates the competition—through brutally hard burnout sessions. The program is divided into two parts. Phase 1 will make you big. Phase 2 will make you ripped. You'll hate it, but it works. | Expert Instruction | You'll learn the essential concepts that define upper- and lower-body training in the FST-7 system. Then you’ll put them into action in some of the most intense workouts of your life. Prepare to be sore! | Nutrition Plan | It isn't easy to become both huge and shredded. But you can get there with targeted, high-quality nutrition. Rambod provides the precise macro breakdowns and meal plans you'll need for unreal growth in Phase 1 and major cuts in Phase 2. He also reveals the supplements that give his pros an edge. ========================================­===== | Follow Us | ► YouTube: http://bit.ly/1RSJFa4 ► Facebook: http://on.fb.me/1lomhpr ► Instagram: http://bit.ly/1LzBxab ► Twitter: http://bit.ly/1RSJQlL ► Google+: http://bit.ly/1NRe8qu ► Pinterest: http://bit.ly/1OOZgY4 ► Spotify: http://spoti.fi/1NRebm0 We are Bodybuilding.com.
