Backside to Leg Workout- Hamstrings

So after isolating just quads for one workout, the next day hamstrings needed the same attention. Used a push-pull and extend concept to hit the hamstrings. With the push exercise being leg press with your toes angled to the side to get complete isolation of the hamstrings (try to make a V shape with your toes pointing out). The pull exercise was sumo deadlifts, again you make a V shape with your toes and perform a stiff leg deadlift. The final exercise was lying leg extensions. This starts to really create some good separation and really bring out the definition throughout the leg muscles. Again if your having trouble growing your legs, try splitting your workouts into one day of quads and hamstrings the next. This will really allow you to concentrate on each muscle individually and will allow for maximum growth. Get it!

  1. Sumo Leg Press (feet angled to side, V shape) 5 sets- 15 reps each
  2. Sumo Deadlifts (feet angled to side, V shape) 4 sets- 10reps each
  3. Leg Extensions- 4sets-10reps
