Nick Andrade’s Body Transformation Log – Day 34 Bodybuilding Leg Workout
Objective: To Burn Fat Gain Muscle Mass And Transform My Body In 12 Weeks

Yesterday I headed off to the gym ready to rip into my bodybuilding leg workout with some intensity. I was pretty excited to get back to the gym and start working towards my goals after the weekend off. This week the Muscle Mass Advantage workouts are switching gears again and forcing me to train in the 4 – 6 repetition range for a decent amount of sets (6) for each body part.

I’m mot sure why, but I absolutely love to train in the 4 – 6 rep range.  I start to get excited just thinking about it…I guess it probably has something to do with the fact that I can train heavy in this repetition range – especially during my leg workouts! The “hard and heavy” style of training has always allowed me to stimulate some serious muscle growth quickly, so I’m anxious to see just how it pans out during week 6 of my body transformation.

Week 6 Bodybuilding Leg Workout

Warm-Up:
Barbell Squat: 1 x 10, 1 x 8, 1 x 6
Work Sets: (rest interval 1.5 minutes)
Barbell Squat: 6 sets x 5 reps
Leg Press: 3 sets x 5 reps

Warm-Up:
Stiff Leg Deadlift: 1 x 10, 1 x 8, 1 x 6
Work Sets: (rest interval 1.5 minutes)
Stiff Leg Deadlift: 6 sets x 5 reps
Leg Curls: 3 sets x 5 reps

I was able to pound out 6 sets of 5 reps with 315 lbs for barbell squats and 3 sets of Leg press with 6 plates on each side.  For my hamstrings I was able to perform 6 sets of 5 reps of stiff legged deadlift with 275lbs and 3 sets of 5 reps of leg curls with the machine set to #14.

As far as my bodybuilding nutrition plan goes,I decided to pretty much stick with that exact same menu that I ate last week.  I felt like I had a decent amount of energy during the week and I really felt full most of the time. I was happy with the results, as I was able to strip off some body fat last week all the while increasing my strength levels a bit, so I just thought that it made sense to ride it out.  There’s no sense in making changes to something if it’s working well for you – just let it ride and make the changes as your progress starts to slow down.

Here’s my bodybuilding nutrition outline for today…

• 1 cup of cottage cheese
• 1 cup of cottage cheese
• 3 cups of green tea
• 2 cups of cooked ground beef
• 3 cups of beef brisket
• 2 cups of cooked spinach (sauteed in a pat of butter)
• 3 cups of beef brisket
• 1/2 cup of walnuts
• 1/2 cup of cheese
• 3 eggs fried in olive oil

Well, that’s it for today’s body transformation journal entry. If you’re looking for a great bodybuilding leg workout and you don’t mind the challenge go ahead and give this workout a try. If you attack it with a sense of urgency and train with weights that are challenging for you, your leg muscles will get stronger and you’ll build some muscle mass in your lower body.
