Drop the last set twice. 8 drop 8 drop 8.

Standing Calf Raise

- Full range of motion. Drop the heels low and stand up on your toes high.

Seated Calf Raise

- Feet inside shoulder width.
- Pressure on your heels and outsides of your feet.
- Brace your core as you slowly lower the weight down into a stretch. 
- Make sure you don’t go too deep and that your butt doesn’t “roll up” in the bottom of the movement. 
- Do not lock out your knees at the top.

Narrow Stance Leg Press (See Notes)

*3 Second Negatives*

- Feet are inside shoulder width. Heels slightly pointed in, toes out.
- Try not to rest at the top and keep the reps consistent and moving.
- You should feel your quads BURNING on this one!

Narrow Stance Hack Squats

* If your gym does not have a pendulum squat, resort to a narrow stance smith machine squat. *

- Feet inside shoulder width.
- Heels slightly in, toes pointed out.
- Place pressure on your heels and the outsides of your feet to hit the outer part of your quads.
- Control the negative of every rep and pause slightly at the bottom to create extra tension.

Narrow Stance Pendulum Squat

- Point your toes towards the ceiling.
- Keep your butt pressed to the bench and don’t let It come off.
- Slowly lower the weight into a complete stretch without letting the weight rest at the bottom.
- Explosively drive the weight up into a full contraction.

Leg Extensions

- We are basically doing a reverse Leg Curl here.
- Brace yourself against the Leg Curl machine, facing in the opposite direction of where you normally would.
- Start with your leg fully extended out and your toes pointed to the ceiling.
- Drive your knee straight up and allow your hip flexors (upper quads) to do all the work.

Hip Flexor Curls

Quad Compound #1

*Reps Are PER LEG*
* Watch full video for entire double drop*

- Perform 8 Reps with your top weight, drop to a lighter weight IMMEDIATELY and perform another 8 reps, then drop to no weight and complete 8 reps (or as many as you can) with just your body weight.

..... then do the same thing on the opposing leg... that’s one set.

Bulgarian Double Drop-Set From Hell 🔥

- Taking smaller steps that will allow your knees to travel slightly over your toes and create more emphasis on your quads.
