Weight Lifting

currently doing 2 x leg sessions per week, what do people think of the below - anything missing, or anything being over done (not necessarily in these orders):

Day 1:
Squats
Seated Calf Raises
Standing Calf Raises
Lying Hamstring Curl
Leg extension machine
Deadlifts

Day 2:
Leg Press
Seated Calf Raises
Standing Calf Raises
Lying Hamstring Curl
Leg extension machine

A day of squatting and finishing with deadlifts gives me the fear. You’d be far better doing deadlifts at the start of your day 2 plan.

Based on what you’re doing in the gym and your football, that’s a lot of work.

How are you feeling generally? I’m a seasoned lifter and do 3-4 hours of zone cardio a week - usually spread over 3 or 4 runs - and the idea of 2 lots of football and 2 leg sessions a week gives me the fear.

I don’t mean to pry too much but if you’re pushing in the gym to the point of being close to failure in these sessions then at least one of the football sessions should be absolutely torture.
