Tom Platz has the most famous leg development in bodybuilding history, so I decided to try his leg workout and see what it really takes to build legs like his. With 43 sets spread over 6 exercises and a combined total of 705 repetitions, can I survive the Tom Platz leg workout? Watch the vid to find out!

14 year old girls everywhere had to pick their jaws up off the floor after he said that
"How many sets you got left?" "11"
Imagine if Tom was there, right when you thought you were done with a set, he'd get 5 , to 10 more reps out of you.

Insane pump there Brandon, looked like you could not bend your legs anymore :D solid premium content, thanks!
That was extremely impressive. I don't remember seeing you with that level of leg pump before. Good luck with the DOMS... 😬

That was awesome. Tom Platz is a huge inspiration of mine. Thank you for this!
Awesome video! Reminds me of your OG ones from years ago. One thing that would make it better is if the camera person would focus on an overall zoomed-out shot during your reps. Zooming in and focusing on your upper body, along with moving the camera up and down with each rep not only is dizzy-making, but doesn’t let us see the entire movement so we can’t learn the proper form, which is one thing we watch for. Thank you for all you do for us!
can't believe you guys still on the rodeo, I remember starting working out like 5-6 years ago and watching your videos specifically to understand why I wasn't gaining any muscle LOL I started with 128 pounds not reached 177 pounds going on and off but always trying. Proud to be subscribe since then.... TRYING this next leg day LOL
I'm glad you included a next day section. All through that workout I was thinking 'He's going to be sore tomorrow'.
Love this one! Love Tom Platz/Buff Dudes!
Most inspirational workout I’ve seen in a while. Gonna try it out next time I train legs.
Very very very impressive! I also admire Platz’s dedication and unique approach towards building legs (esp quads) and have incorporated his techniques. I wasn’t aware of the amount of VOLUME associated with his workout routine. Def eye opening and goes against traditional practices I’ve been using so worth a try
"Come on Brodin, get me through this" 🙏 wheymen. ...also god damn, that Ken Burns Civil War-esque fiddle playing over Brandon hobbling up to the camera lmao Great video!
Video 9 of reminding you guys of how much of an inspiration you are to us all. Love love
Successfully attempted these this morning at 5am (first for me) Absolutely killed me. Great motivation vid of the quad father's routine 🙏

Amazing craftsmanship, thank you for the insightful video.
Very good. But, can Buff Dudes do an 8 hour Rich Piana style arm workout? 😅
Thanks for the work, enjoyed the video
You guys should try a John Meadows/Dave Tate workout (maybe one with the cattle prod). Or you could do the Rich Piana 8 hour arm workout for fun.
Tom would then bike home after..... a legend
Buff Dudes should go and train with Mike Israetel and Jared Feather. Would be a fun episode 🙂 Of course an Arnold impression show down would be a must 😁

Loved your work and it shows so much respect for Mr universe Tom platz you did him proud doing this video.
HOW ARE YOU NOT SWEATING?
Hats off dude, that's brutal! I tend to do maybe 20 sets for a leg day total so that's insane. Where did your source this workout out of interest?
Yeah Another legend after Mike got covered by Buff Dudes. It was delight watching it, u crushed it Brandon 🔥
happy Halloween Buff Dudes and family!
Great Pump progression! Aye Brandon did the dang thang. Shout out for doing a legendary workout from a Legendary man on some Legendary kicks AF1 W/W
One the best video in a while,more of this kind of grinding 💪💪💪😎😜
Love the Airforce 1’s High Tops for this insane leg workout 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👏🏽
Hi Buff Dudes! 😊 Thanks for all your valuable tips and unique motivation! 💯 Is it possible to suggest, that you could try out kettlebells for one or more videos? Any input would be highly appreciated. 😎👍 Best regards from Denmark
I remember Tom Platz from the 80’s. Go for it 💪💪
Curious how long that routine took you, looked killer!!
It's really interesting to see you go from super low volume HIT training to something super high volume like this, though i imagine you could do your whole week's worth of HIT gym time in less time than it took to do this 1 workout. Which do you prefer and why? If you don't mind answering, obviously.
Great job and excellent effort! Search the leg workout Tom Platz took John Meadows through…also legendary.
I enjoy that ... I learned something. I think a series of this would be awesome.....Arnold's chest. Dorian's back. Larry Scott's arms. So on...
That hack squat is a #kneesovertoesguy dream!!
Amazing workout!
I used to do his methodology on leg days. I changed pants size 2x in 6 months. It worked amazing for me. And yeah the doms lasted like 4-7 days.

Did you train legs once a week?
Love the old school equipment. Glad you could walk the next day.
Man, this video is getting me PUMPED to go get a PUMP!
Now, I love doing back squats, but my gods, there are limits. I could feel the burn through my screen!
How many sets total? I am not sure if I missed that part. Awesome video, BTW. I wonder if you could apply this concept to the chest? I wonder what that puml would be like?
I have been focusin on legs lately and it is intense and difficult but satisfying.
thanks for the video. entertaining
These dudes are the best, Love the show Buff Dudes!
Wow this is a lot like my leg day. Not as extreme but it’s enough for me to get a pump. Gonna try harder and go for this one
Bro the editting at the leg extensions was epic. In my mind I heared the Nazgul theme from LOTR, I felt those reps
im glad u included the day after :D
I really like that theres no ego when you train. You perform the squats with 1 plate and the hack squats without anny additional weights. And you know what? Thats absolutely fine! It gets the job done and it will make you grow. Sometimes it feels like today everythings about what weight you use. Its all ego
Brandon I absolutely love this haircut of yours.

Me too.
The hack squat variation you did is how George Hackenschmidt (who hack squats were named after) did squats. Dumbbell held behind the back, feet together, toes out, raise the heels as you come down.
“Quad Father” you nailed it
I love your contents.
Major props to you for doing this one Brandon, took MASSIVE huevos to even attempt this. Question regarding sequence though: Would it be better to alternate between quad exercises and the others? Ex, instead of going 1 Squat, 2 Hack Squat, 3 Leg Extension, 4 Lying Leg curl, 5 calf raise, would it be better to go Squat- Leg Curl- Hack Squat- Calf Raise- Leg extension? That way you give your quads a chance to rest, while you torch something else. Or would that take away from the pump?
Many don’t know how to do sponsorship, but this was awesome! The VAST majority of the content was content not slinging sponsorship and the brief pitch was good and meaning because it was being EARNED by shlogging through a Tom Platz leg day. Well done buff dudes.
Its always a good day when Buff Dudes post
One of the best nuggets of advice I ever hears was from Mike Mentzer saying these insanely high volume workouts only really work if you're on PED's
I love this content
They don’t call Platz the Quadfather for nothing!
Best form I’ve seen in a long time
Great workout. plaz did 2 types of hack squat. One for mass one for detailing. The ine you executed is the ine for detailing. Thus great great job and execution
They buff dudes simply have it all 😂 so god damn impressive
Check out the YT video of Tom Platz putting John Meadows through Platz squats. Really great.
Talk about a leg workout from hell. 8 x 20 for squats??! Gosh damn. I did your P1D3 leg workout today from your 12 week plan, and I’m walking around like I crapped my pants trying not to get any caca on myself. Nice job Brandon. I hope I get work myself up to that one day.
Never thought I’d be in a buff dudes video that’s crazy
The music is spot on!!!
Nice quads dude!
Inspirational workout.
You got this!😅
That looked painful just watching, but wow your quads looked like they were about to explode at the end.

Man your legs is pumping like hell in front of camera. They are changing in shape and volume. And this build alot muscle. Be ready for the next days it will Hurt several days, and you'll feel hungry like hell. The best training video, really, never see this. Thank you.
First time doing it tonight. Gonna feel it when I wake up dead tomorrow for sure
Toilet squatting gonna be rough for a few days after this. 😂
Respect 💯
TOM PLATZ could do 50 reps in one go moderate weight insane !
Can you guys make a video or have done a video on a push pull leg routine?
Thank you for this video. When you stiff legged to say good bye, I laughed because that’s how I’m going to be tomorrow. My trainer had me do this leg workout today 😅 I was close to puking 🤮 😂😂 I found a new appreciation for squats using the Tom Platz method. ❤❤❤
Me, with a meniscus tear, who cannot do more than a quarter squat with bodyweight: Yeah, of course I can. 😎
Leg day and seated toilet time - thats where the battle begins..... Really impressive work again man, could really tell that workout session gave you the business!
Tom Platz was a madman!
Buff dudes yeah!
My question is if he did mostly quads and ham curls how did he keep up with his glutes? And also as far as reps and sets what’s the ideal for someone starting without overloading?
13:50 Sounds like the camera guy tapped a car tire. 😂
That next day walk. Feels like I had a prison date.
Tom trained insane ,i like it
name of the song when you are doing the last set of squats?
I should be asleep but I’m instead watching this epic workout. God I love the gym
Awesome
Damn.. this looks brutal !!!!
Nice leg pump 👍
In college I had something close to this during powerlifting season. I would do six ascending sets of squat + 4 heavy work sets on the same. Then I would do five sets each of leg curl, leg extension, hip abduction, and donkey calf raises. Then I would do five sets of hex bar deadlift. Add to cap that off, 10 sets of hamstring stretches and calf raise normal sets. Sometimes I would hit 40 sets total in about an hour and a half. It's also why other lifters called me crazy. The squat workouts were so intense that I had to stretch for 10 minutes before and after them, then go on a 2-mile slow jog afterwards to keep my legs from cramping up all night.
Idk what’s harder to watch, the intense leg pump or the creasing of beautiful all white Air Force ones during the back squats lol
I do tom platz legs at least once a month. I love it.
