Building Strong Glutes and Quads: A Leg Day Workout with Compound Movements and Killer Exercises

If you don’t like sweating and you don’t want big, fat,
juicy glutes, this video is not for you.
But if you do, then come with me and let’s do my leg day.
So to start, we started with some compounds,
which was a conventional deadlift,
and I did four sets of eight reps.
I maxed out at 240 pounds, so that was my heavy set.
After finishing that, I moved on to some heavy hip thrusts,
and I did four sets of eight reps
with a 10 second hold on the last rep.
And when I tell you, my glutes were on fire,
they were on fire. We then moved in to doing some leg press,
and for this one, I focused on keeping my feet high and wide,
or as wide as possible
to engage my glutes and my adductors and abductors.
So I did four sets of eight reps.
We then moved on to some single leg work,
and I did four sets of eight reps of front foot elevated split squats.
So these are great to target your quads,
so you really want to focus on knee drive.
Last but not least, my least favorite exercise in the entire world,
leg curls. And I did four sets of eight reps as well in this movement.
