1. Squats 4 sets 6-8 Reps
2. Leg Press 3-4 Sets 6-8 Reps
3. Hack Squats on machine 3 Sets 8-10
4. Leg extentions 3 Sets
5. Hamstring Curls 3 Sets
6 Calves If I got time

Should I be doing Stiff legged Dead Lifts the same day or with back

After im done now, I feel like puking.:barf:

Any suggestions to add something or remove???

Seems like a lot of sets to me. Personally I wouldn't do leg press at all. Just hit the squats hard.

I find I get a good burn when doing Leg Press, maybe remove Hack squat and add another set to Squats

yeah hack squats are just over doing, maybe throw a deadlift in there instead?

Where's the burn? You should have devastated all the muscle fibres you're recruiting with the squats if you're going ass to grass and putting up the poundage.

scratch the ham curls and calfs, save it for the next day. throw in some lunges. Im guessing your doing squats with the bar on your back, try front squats instead. 3 sets (8-10 reps) of each exercise should be fine unless your pyramiding the weight but id rather lift as much as i can 3 times.

i'd say drop all of these:
3. Hack Squats on machine 3 Sets 8-10
4. Leg extentions 3 Sets
5. Hamstring Curls 3 Sets

do an extra set of squats, one less set of leg presses and throw some stiff leg deadlifts in there to isolate your hamstrings

and make sure you hit your calves, the more out of proportion your body parts are the wierder your body looks
