Saturday's workout

Full Squat: 205x17
Leg Press: 420x31
Leg Curl: 80x15

that's it. I could have waited 20 minutes to recover and continue with the upper body portion, but I opted to go home and lie on the ground for 20 min instead. I need to stick it out and condition myself to work longer.

Calf raises are about to become an obsession.

Program:

Full Squat 205 x as many reps as possible
Leg Press 20 - 35 reps
Leg Curl 20 - 35 reps

Rest

Dips
Shoulder Press
Lateral Raises
Row, Curl, or Chin

Rest

Calf Raises 5 sets x 15 - 100 reps

Wow, it's been a while.

Yesterday's workout:

Full Squat: 205x15
Leg Press: 420x21
Leg Curl: 80x20
N Press: 80x20
Lateral Raise: 35x5

next workout is Thursday....

I am aiming for 15 reps this week in the full squat, with impeccable form. I have been placing the bar a little higher on my back than usual, in an effort to stop it from sliding down after each rep. It's actually working really well. Leg presses are brutal, and taken as deep as possible. I started at 400x13, then hit 400x21 in the following workout, and then 400x29 in the previous workout to yesterday.

I'd also like to add calf raises and some kind of chin or bicep curl... as it stands right now, I am gassed after my lower body session... still trying to build up the stamina.

So Thursday will hopefully look like this:
Full Squat: 205x15
Leg Press: 420x30
Leg Curl: 90x15
Calf Raise: high reps
Nautilus Press: 90x15
N Lateral Raise: 35x10
Chins: BW for max reps
