Ok so here is how the workout went, at least how much of it I got done...
This workout was mainly focused on quads because he does hamstrings another time. These are the weights and reps I did as I was too out of it to care how much he was doing at the time. These reps are estimated how many I got because I can't remember exactly how many I got.

(weight x reps)
Leg extensions
60x20
100x15
120x15
160x12
200x18

Leg Press (slow controlled reps)
3 platesx20
5 platesx15
6 platesx12
6 platesx7

Smith squats
2 platesx15
2 platesx12
3 platesx12 (half reps)
3 platesx7 (half reps)

I did one sit of an exercise on the hacksquat machine but I was done, couldn't even budge it with no weight on. I didn't throw up but I sure did feel like it the whole time. Hardest leg workout i'll probably ever do. I'll be on for a bit so feel free to ask questions.

My old gym used to have those Jade plates, I loved them. Easy to handle and swing around.

yea the only thing I don't like is that when you try to deadlift with the they will hit that flat groove where the handle is and not roll and it becomes annoying sometimes.

**seriouslifter** · 04-13-2009, 12:02 PM

i got those jade plates, deadlift kind of annoying you got to get them on the flat part and deadlift from that edge, taking plates on and off is easy and wont get stuck when the bar is on the floor. thats awesome u trained with DJ, how long you known him for? does he have a training partner regularly?

**JesseC** · 04-13-2009, 12:06 PM

There is one of how pumped my legs were after the workout. That is fully flexed and usually you can see my striations. Legs look uneven but they are not its just because I couldnt flex them both hard because they hurt so bad

I've known him for about 8 months I want to say. Met him training at the gym and would just talk to him and about stuff and eventually became friends. Well right now he really doesn't because the guy he trained with is going in for surgery soon because of a car accident he was involved in.

Great pix Thanks for sharing! reps..
Watching DJ train legs in "Back to Basics" was insane, especially the scene with the guy yelling "DRIIIIIIIIIVE!!!" while he's doing the parking lot lunges! I'm sure you and him had an insane workout and even though it looked painfull I'm sure it was a "good time"! lol

**ESPforMe** · 04-13-2009, 12:10 PM

Very cool, Jesse.

Not many people get this opportunity. Legs look super pumped.

**AMERICAZHUSTLA** · 04-13-2009, 12:11 PM

lol that part of his video was sick. It was an insane workout at one point I started having like a panic attack and couldnt catch my breath but I love pushing my body like that as long as its in a controlled manner and I dont get hurt.

Repped.

**bizzlewood** · 04-13-2009, 12:54 PM

awesome you're very lucky to get to train with him

**spirit3530** · 04-13-2009, 01:19 PM

LOL for once an OP delivers on these blah blah with a Pro thread.

Rapes...

PRO's love the high reps, don't they.

Yea hes pre-contest right now thats why we trained like that im sure I have seen him go a lot heavier with less reps when he isn't just a few weeks out

**Loctus** · 04-13-2009, 01:53 PM

Repped sir, good thread

Play nice Mr. Big**** and just thank the dude for posting pics of him training with a pro. No reason to come on here saying his legs are small.

**JesseC** · 04-13-2009, 02:04 PM

congrats you are 28 and trolling my thread this isn't about how big my legs are anyway... This is about me training with an IFBB pro.

**antfarm** · 04-13-2009, 02:07 PM

**C-Money** · 04-13-2009, 02:10 PM

Don't get me wrong, I aint mad atchya... just sayin'

**Supercows** · 04-13-2009, 02:16 PM

do you plan to compete? If so, does he give you tips & advice?
You are one lucky Son of a Bit_ch to be able to train with him. What supplement line is he with? Whats it like seeing a pro in person?
