Best Workout For Larger, Denser Thighs
Muscle & Fitness
|November 2018
Endure this brutal leg session for skin-splitting pumps and, on the other side, larger, denser thighs.
My own program Y3T (Yoda 3 Training)—which I use to train elite-level body-builders like William Bonac and six-time 212 Olympia winner Flex Lewis—has gained a reputation among even the most hardcore trainees as being, well, absolutely pain stakingly savage. More specifically, the third week of the program, aka “Hell Week,” has gained an infamous reputation because of the high-rep brutality deployed for total muscle annihilation. This is not just for effect, though—high-rep training within the Y3T cycle is an immensely potent hypertrophy tool that can transform a stubborn muscle group into one that turns heads. Below, I dig deep into the fundamentals of Week 3 of Y3T and how it can help you achieve the best results of your life, along with a leg routine for you to try. But be warned: Shit is about to get serious.
