How long does it take you to recover from leg day?

[Sad Bunny]

Sometimes it takes me two days to recover, but I’m just so ready to go outside and get back to walking.

I did front and back squats with 150 lbs on Monday

I did 185 lbs for my deadlifts

Well, at least it’s raining here today and yesterday, so I can kind of just wait it out.

Im a bigger dude. Probably had muscle under all that fat . I wish I trusted people here to show the before and after pics.

My legs probably strong from being heavier and walking so much. I walked an average of ten miles a day in June

Smith machine squats are easy though. I can rep my max on a smith machine.

If it is easy then the weight is too light.

21 sets in one workout for quads? You'll recover either in time for next week's leg day or for one last one at the end of the week.

Edit: assuming your weren't bullshytting your sets

lifting like that, youre supposed to be tired. 5 sets. Nothings wrong with lifting light unless your ego is big and youre scared to get it crushed. You just have to watch your form and hold the weight for some seconds (3 to 5 seconds or longer if you can take it) at the height of the resistance to feel the burn. If youre still in pain after a few days and it gets worse, go to a doctor. Dont ignore it.

Who hit them legs like Bambaata did Hassan Campbell?

You don't ever fully recover. Not supposed to.

I don't really get heavy soreness unless I go on vacation and don't lift for like 1-2 weeks. Then the day after I'll be a bit sore but nothing crazy.

I did “supersets”

I’m new to this so I don’t know

I feel a little better today, but this was on Monday and I think it’s ridiculous. It’s gonna take me three or four days to be able to get back to do in my 5 to 10 mile walks every day.

Today I did back exercises.
