    The day your workout is focused on the legs or lower body. :smile:

    Leg day can mean different things to different people.

    Most commonly "leg day" refers to strength training focused on lower body muscles.

    Squats are probably the most common focus on leg day although there are a large number of possible exercises

    Other than for women who didn't want to bulk up in the past, crossfit is just not a good way to add mass...

    Any day over 60 degrees. Otherwise, it's too cold.

    Also, the day you're most likely to either puke or pass out (or both) in the gym.

    Leg Day...or the day that many people do squats, lunges, or RDLs...is typically the day *before* eating Mexican foods, not after. Just sayin.'

    Unless you workout at home and your spouse is used to your scent, lol.

    Never skip leg day! It means make sure you work out all of your muscles so you don't get all imbalanced and weird looking. http://i.imgur.com/jk1mEbY.jpg

    the day I do the following:
    squats
    leg extension
    leg press
    walking lunges
    1 legged deadlifts
    leg curls
    calf raises

    then hope my legs don't give out as I walk down a flight of steps to the locker room

    I think this is the best answer

    I dunno, he looks like he gets around to it every once in a while.
