hi guys, i m a newbie..

i've been doing below exercises for 3 months
leg extension
squat
leg press
lying leg curl
standing calf raises

and i would like to change my routine.
DB lunge
squat
leg press
lying leg curl
seated calf raise

is it suitable??

so whats stopping you? On another note, i dont see how you can do the other exercises after you do squats. i can't even walk properly, let alone do leg presses.

the 1st n 2nd routine are equally good tho.. all u need is, on how to do it in a proper way. Thats the key.. if ur leg is big enuf then u might consider on building the tone

Use the pre-exhaustion principles where the body uses the main muscles first, then attack the smaller stabilizers with unilateral and isolation work.

coz i read an article. it says beginner should change workout routine every 3 months...
i'm 68kg. currently max for squat is 40kg but i can't get any higher even though 45kg.
do you mean i should do others before squat?
i did this before.

i tried leg extension, leg press then squat. even worst...i can't reach 40kg...

Added on November 4, 2010, 1:48 pmwhat is the pre-exhaustion principle?
The pre-exhaustion principle is a method of training a muscle with a compound movement and then combining it with an isolation movement to further fatigue the working muscle. I.E. Perform one set of the bench press and then go immediately to an isolation movement such as the dumbell flye to work both red and white muscle fibers fully.

searched from Google....i can't really distinguish compound movement and isolation movement...
give me some time, i will learn
