It's easy to see why leg days are the most dreaded day of the workout week. It's not necessarily about the pain you inflict upon yourself during the workout, but the agonizing days that come afterwards. Unfortunately, unless looking like Johnny Bravo or Spongebob is your idea of the perfect physique, you're well aware of how important it is to train the calves, hamstrings, and quads. Chin up, we feel and understand your pain...
Sure, you might walk into the gym feeling like a million bucks, but that crawl out the door says otherwise. Don't worry, we won't judge you.

The next couple of days are the ones where you sit and reflect on your life, and regret going so hard on those deep squats. The pain goes away, stop being so dramatic.

When and why did the gym decide to make the parking lot the size of 20 football fields? Although you're parked on the first row, on leg days you might as well go ahead and multiply that distance times 3 miles.

Remember all those movements you took for granted when your body was at 100%? Good luck raising your legs into your car.

Selfie? More like On-the-floor-ie. This is why there's a lack of #legday pictures on social. No one wants to look at the hot mess that is you after a serious leg session.

This is the moment in your life when you start weighing your options: Risk tears rolling down your face as you squat, or hope for the best as you attempt a standing...well, you know the rest,

Don't get stopped by law enforcement. Your legs are not your friends, they will not cooperate with you as you try to walk the line in hopes of convincing the officer that you aren't drunk. Call your gym from jail, maybe they can better explain leg days to the judge.

What insane person tries to run the day after? The bench is your friend, embrace the sitting position, since that's all you can do for the next few days anyways.

Alright, alright, we get it. You can't walk. No need to be a drama king/queen about it. Suck it up, hold back the tears and start taking your first steps.

Mr. Chunks needs to stretch his legs, which is more than you could do at the moment. Let the neighbors judge, at least your tree trunks are going to look awesome this summer.

You convinced mom that she needed a stair lift to help her get up the stairs, but you knew the day would come. That day is here and its name is leg day.

Somehow you managed to crawl up the stairs. Guess how you're going to get back down? Leave your dignity on the second floor, you won't need it anymore.

You're not done yet. This is a pain you must experience every week if you know what's good for you: a great set of legs. Better luck next week!
