"What's your leg day routine?"
You have to bear in mind that my gym has no cage and a smith machine so 'proper' squats are a no-go.
Smith Machine hack squat 5 x 5
Bulgarian split squat (single leg) 4 x 8
rest - do some chinup/dip supersets (3 x 10 of each) because your legs are now like jelly.
Dumbell lunges 4 x 8
Barbell front squat 3 x 10
Hamstring machine thing (injury prevention) 3 x 10-15 |

You may find that some stability excercises help your knee, but find out from someone qualified which ones to do. |

Me too - the lack of a cage means that I tend to do them last because I have to clean the bar into position. |

It's the day after the day after that really gets me! Love a leg workout though, tucked up the corner of the gym away from the bicep curl and bench press posers  |

I'm only back today after five months off. .. feeling the pain already it feels like im starting over again!
Was dead lifting 85 in strength and conditioning before; I prefer the free weights to the machines. . It was all I could do to get through a kettle Bell class that I could have done in my sleep before. ..Not a happy bunny but will suck it up.. Did it before will do it again
_tarbeck..I have two knee replacements... and a sport's physio after my ops got me so much mobility and stability back. . Which is how I got into the gym . It can be expensive advice but for me it was well worth it tbh.  |

I always thought Leg day was the best day as I love squats and used to hurt for a few days after . I haven't trained just legs since trying crossfit now with the cardio and Olympic lifting coupled with gymnastic training I hurt all over most of the time lol |
