    Have you tried variations of "the same old things"? You could try Bulgarian split squats, reverse lunges (from an elevated surface) and/or add more weight to your routine. I practice standing static leg raises and a variety of squats and lunges.

    Good mornings, deadlifts, hip thrust, sitting in chair pose against the wall are all good to mix into other regular leg day activities.

    Stiff-legged deadlift
    Sumo squats
    Glute bridges
    One-legged deadlifts
    Bulgarian split squats
    Curtsy squats
    Glute kickbacks
    Front squats
    Sumo deadlifts

    I love to add some supersets, drop sets, and 21's. Some days I go really heavy with more rest and less reps, some days I go for more reps with a lighter weight and less rest. I'm constantly switching up my leg routine to keep it exciting:)
