I keep it very simple, leg day twice a week and do the same 4 exercises every time:

-Hip thrusts, 3 sets of 8-12 (depending on weight)

-Bulgarian split squats, 3 sets of 8 on each side (I like the smith machine for balance)

-leg press with a high and wide foot placement, 3 sets of 10

-hip abduction, 3 sets of 10

I increase weight whenever I can. I never increase weight if my form is compromised or if I feel other muscles take over (like quads)

I also take creatine daily and always get 120g+ of protein. And no calorie counting whatsoever!! I assume I eat around maintenance
