From next week on my training split will also change slightly. Shape has been carefully examined and the feedback I have received from several people is that the ratio between upper and lower body is too large. My upper body is way ahead of my quads and hamstrings. If I can fix that, I can be competitive at the shows i’m aiming for.

Split will look like this:
Mon - Legs + Calves (Hamstring Focus)
Tue - Chest / Shoulders
Wed - Back + abs
Do - rest
Vr - Legs + Calves (Quad focus)
Sat - Arms + abs
So - Rest or repeat hamstrings

First time I'm really going to work with a separate hamstring day, where I fully focus on leg curls, stiff legs / RDL's and perhaps lunges / leg presses with the emphasis on hamstrings. I always have the feeling that I can't give 100% to my quads or hams during a full leg workout.

3 more weeks trying this way, then on vacation, where I still train but will deload. After that, new plans are made for the fall.

I think i can get used to splitting quads and hamstrings. Very solid workout. The high and wide stance leg press felt amazing. After exhausting the hamstring i felt it everywhere quads/hams/glutes. Didn’t go extremely heavy but focussed on time under tensions. The pump felt so good that i kept doing set after set.
