That's a hell of a leg day. I think I would have had to crawl out of there lol.

I noticed you have 3 different leg curl exercises in there. Is there a difference in the position of the machines? I'm assuming one standing, one seated and one laying? Just curious... After so many years of training, I could never seem to get comfortable with seated leg curls. Not sure why, maybe my hamstrings pressed against the seat? I'll usually do laying leg curls followed by some stiff leg deadlifts. Gets a good stretch and hammers the glutes if you focus on the squeeze.

@Yohimbe agreed one hell of a leg day.

That's a lot and almost seems unnecessary in some parts, imo. if you were to continue training like that, make sure you're recovering first and foremost. If you're not, you're not doing yourself any favors. Another thing if you're not recovering, split it into two days throughout a micro cycle. Also, abductors twice or duplicate? Throw some adductors in and prevent that skinny girl thigh gap.

brother, I’ve never had to take the elevator to make it to the locker room ill tell you that much LOL it was crucial.

and as far as the difference between the two hamstring curls, 1. I was trying to not stand around too much waiting for my next machine so I doubled down with the seated one. But the point was to absolutely destroy my legs and that it did. But I feel what you mean about the discomfort of the seated one, I used to feel the same way but just pushed through it until it didn’t. I’ll definitely have to try the stiff leg dead lifts that sound tooooo nice.

Agreed my guy, I’ve been hitting the gym hard as hell. Specifically my legs which are my stronger suit. But legs only once a week, I rest, take my sups And down hella water and electrolytes to help the healing process. And I really couldn’t figure out the name of the abductors LOL that’s why I put (in) I mean adductors lol. Now I know.
And I’m not sure if I have it wrong though, been trying to melt the fat off my legs for more definition, so I was thinking the harder I go on the abductors and adductors.. I’d be doing just that. What’s your opinion on that?

You might like the stiff leg deadlifts. They've been a staple in my leg workout for many years. They're all about form. Once you get the form and feel down, your hamstrings and glutes will be toast. I'll get heavy with them sometimes and my legs will literally be shaking.
