It's leg day and that mean get ready to work. I love working my legs because it's the biggest muscle group which means more muscle to burn fat. That's what I love about gaining lean muscle mass. Muscle burns fat hours after your workout! Genius! Let's hit it hard today.
Warm up on elliptical for 10-15 minutes increasing tension every couple minutes to the point your breaking a pretty good sweat by the end. Make sure you are pushing yourself to the limit. No set should be easy, make it difficult.
Leg extension-as heavy as you can do- 3 sets of 10-12
Jumping squats-3 sets of 30
Leg press-at least 45's on each side then build as sets progress- 3 sets of 10-12
Squats on smith machine- at least 25's then build as sets progress- 3 sets of 10-12
Walking lunges- 40-50lbs barbell across your upper back- 20-30 down one way(basketball court or anywhere that has space)
Step ups-(on bench) Holding 10-15lb dumbbells 15 each leg
Jumping lunges-3 sets of 30
Make sure to stretch you quads and hamstrings after your workout to lengthen those muscles out. This will help with the soreness. Great Job! If you have time jump on the treadmill or bike for some sprints. Please don't hesitate to send me a quick question about anything. Happy legs!
