Rest-Pause Hamstring Curls

Start off on the lying hamstring curl machine with a load that you can
perform for about 10 reps at the most. Perform 10 reps and rest for 5
seconds. Immediately following that 5 second rest, begin the lift again
and go to failure. Once youve hit failure, rest another 5 seconds and
repeat. Perform this exercise for 1-2 sets at the end of your leg training
session.

Hamstring Curls Negatives Partner Needed

Start off on the lying hamstring curl machine using a load that you
cannot perform for more than 3 reps. Your partner will assist in
bringing the weight up and then you will slowly (on your own) bring the
weight down in a slow controlled fashion (4 seconds). Once youve
reached the bottom, your partner will again assist in bringing the
weight up and you will repeat a slow controlled negative. Perform this
for 8 reps.

LEG Dominator Finish Partner Needed

Load the leg press machine with moderate weight. You'll need a
training partner/spotter to help you strip plates for this one.
Start with your feet high and close together. Once your feet are set, rep
to failure.
Rack the weight and reset your feet wide and low on the platform, bang
out as many reps as you can.
Once you hit failure, take a plate off each side of the machine and place
your feet back in the high/close position. Repeat the pattern you
started out with, going to failure and then changing your foot position.
As you hit failure each time, strip another plate. Keep going until you're
down to a single plate on each side and have reached failure with that
weight.
Leg Dominator Finish
Heaviest weight: Feet high and close, rack; feet low and wide, rack:
1 set to failure
Strip a plate per side: Feet high and close, rack; feet low and wide,
rack: 1 set to failure
Strip another plate per side: Feet high and close, rack; feet low and

Continue till you have only one plate per side left and you reach
failure with feet low and wide: 1 set to failure

2 Minute Tension Leg Press

This finisher is the most effective and challenging when thrown in at

the end of a leg day.
Remember, finishers are (and really should not be) complicated.
Set up a leg press machine with 70% of the weight you would use for 10
reps. So if you normally bang out 400lbs for 10reps, load up the leg
press with 280lbs.
Set a timer for two minutes and try to bang out as many reps as
possible in that amount of time. Try to rest as little time as possible.
Do not rest in a completely locked out position.
Try to beat your record every time you perform this finisher.
