Leg Blaster Routine

Building up and working your legs hard is one of the biggest keys to getting bigger and stronger.

Strong, powerful legs equals strong, powerful body. And the only way to get those powerful legs is by squatting.

The squat is the granddaddy of all exercises – the numero uno of muscle building. Work your squats hard and watch the rest of your body grow.

Why?

Because the squat metabolically works the entire body like no other. The only exercise that comes close is the deadlift.

The value of heavy leg and squat training is so far reaching that everyone who even dabbles in strength training should know of the benefits of adding heavy leg work.

Below is a routine that is a little high in volume, but will do wonders for your overall strength program. This will give you size as well as strength. This is an especially good routine if you are a bodybuilder.

You will work on your legs two days a week and your upper body two days per week. The deadlift will be performed once a week on one of the leg days.

Squats 6 x 10

Notes: Warm-up for five minutes before working out. You want to go a little lighter in the weights, like 60-70% of your 1-rep max. This will increase the pump in your legs without burning you out as quickly if you were lifting heavier. As always, increase poundages whenever possible, eat right, get adequate rest, and drink lots of water.
