Warm up for 5–10 minutes, then do one or two lighter sets of the first exercise. Pick a weight you can lift for the listed reps with one or two reps to spare.
Rest 1–2 minutes between sets, and 2–3 minutes on heavy barbell lifts. When you hit every listed rep with good form, add a little weight or a few reps next time — that is progressive overload.
For timed exercises, keep a steady pace for the whole interval and add 5–10 seconds once it feels easy. Swap any exercise you can't do for a similar one — each exercise links to its technique page.
How many times a week should I do Leg Day?
The plan is built for 2 days a week: Wednesday, Saturday. Keep at least one rest day between hard sessions for the same muscles — that is when they recover and grow.
What equipment do I need for Leg Day?
You need: Gym. If something is missing, swap the exercise for a similar one — the technique pages list variations.
When will I see results from Leg Day?
Most people feel stronger within 3–4 weeks and see visible changes after 8–12 weeks of consistent training, as long as they eat enough protein and sleep well. Log every workout so you can see the progress in numbers.
