Gym nuts of GAG, how would I split my leg day?

[Anonymous]

Now, I am a naturally thin ectomorph, and I want to balance my body out. My arma and shoulders are so dominant, they get a lot more size much faster and easier than my legs. So for the moment, I have stopped training my upper body and mostly just work it out with twice weekly pilates sessions, and I find that works for me.
Being an ectomorph, I don't do any cardio aside from a five minute warm up before I lift.
So all of this only gives me a reason to go to the gym two times a week to train my legs and glutes. I would try to make three, but then I would be overworking the muscle.
I feel lazy only going to the gym twice a week. I want to split leg day, but I don't know how. My primary focus is trying to build bigger glutes and I'm impressed with my progress so far.
A typcal leg day looks like this: I'll usually pick 4 or five exercises.
squat to 1RM and back.
SL Deadlift
Cable kick backs and cable fire hydrants
Leg press or single leg leg press
Weighted lunges
Step ups
Bulgarian split squats on the smith machine'
leg extensions or leg curls
Back extensuions.

How should I split my leg day?

Im ectomarphic too. This might sound crazy but train your legs LESS, yes less. If we ectos train a body part as big as legs more than once a weektheyget burned out amd stop growing. You probably over trained your legs and thats why they stunted growth.

Workout your legs once a week but befre that take a weekoff the gym, rest the body and resumeworking out everythingelse too.

Dpheavy squats only four sets of ten reps with heaviest weight, then barbel calva raises for the same ammount. Legs press for fourof ten and thats it. The rest is eat and rest

You can't really split your leg day. But it seems like your leg day is a BIT much. I would say choose 2 compound (squat + SL deadlift would be my choices) plus 3 accessory (calf raises, hamstring curls, one other of your choosing) sets of 8-12. That's a lot of volume you're pushing there, and it may be overly redundant. Try scaling it back to something like what I recommended for now.
