Jay Cutler\u2019s Leg Day<\/h3>\n

This massive leg day featured 10 exercises that Jay Cutler strategically put together:<\/p>\n

Jay Cutler broke down each exercise and how it helps accomplish goals. Seated hamstring curls are done early in the workout and this is Cutler\u2019s favorite movement.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cMy favorite exercise is the seated hamstring curl. I think because of the length of my quads. I think I have shorter quads and longer calves so this seems to work better in the seated position.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

When performing stiff leg deadlifts, Cutler opts for dumbbells rather than using a barbell.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI prefer dumbbells because I feel a little bit of you\u2019re not restricted with the bar hitting your shins or feet. What you\u2019re trying to do here, remember it\u2019s about pumping the hamstrings so you get that blood in there.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The workout continues with some of Cutler\u2019s favorite exercises to pump legs. \u00a0A detailed leg workout routine will significantly improve your overall strength and play a crucial role in the \u201cbig three\u201d\u00a0compound<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0movements,\u00a0deadlifts<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0squats<\/a><\/strong>. Cutler has incorporated all three to help grow.<\/p>\n
