Leg Day workout

/in , /by

You game for this🏻???

Matt & I did these as supersets so there were no breaks in between. We ended up doing 3 sets of everything (8-16 reps depending on weight & exercise) and it took us about an hour:

• Cable leg lifts
• Hip thrusts on bench
• Weighted Bulgarian Split Lunges
• Hamstring curls w/ball
• Weighted Step ups
• Romanian Deadlifts
• Weighted Squats (not shown)
• Speed Skaters (not shown)
• Weighted Sumo Squats (not shown)
• Weighted Hamstring Curl (not shown)
• Weighted Leg Extensions (not shown)
• Crawling out of homegym (not shown)

I usually do this once a week + about HALF of it once a week, but have been out of my leg day routine lately!
Feels GOOD to be back at it!🙌🏼

I Love To Hate This Workout

/in , , /by

Love_to_hateWould you do it?

For the High Knee Jump Rope, right + left = 1.
For the Weighted Overhead Lunges, right + left = 2.

☝3 rounds only if you are using LIGHT weight or you’re modifying, or you’re advanced.
☝Know YOUR body & level
☝Be sure to warm up first, focus on form but avoid any breaks if you can.
☝Modify as needed.
☝Cooldown + stretch afterwards!

Would you do it?!

p.s. This is sped up, of course!

You Can’t Wait to be Motivated

dont waitYou can’t wait to be motivated, you have to just do it! Agreed??

I was NOT in the mood to workout this afternoon.. But that rarely stops me, especially if I just took a day off, which I did yesterday. I’ve been doing this‪ ‎fit life long enough to know, most of the time, you JUST DO IT whether you feel like it or not. It’s WAY too easy to find an excuse & if you allow your mind to go there, you’ll SURELY find an excuse!

Usually once I start, I’m ENERGIZED, but this time half way thru I felt sick to my stomach😷. I figured it must’ve been something I ate, so I ☝chose to ignore it & finished a grueling leg workout + a lil ‪turbo. SO GLAD I FINISHED. I felt amazing afterwards! Whatever that nauseous feeling was, it disappeared 👍
Get addicted to that post-workout bliss & remember it when you’re trying to legitimize another day off🙇

Leg Circuit

How do you feel about this circuit??

You can sub in a 1-min run/sprint or 1-min front & back kicks instead of the Rower.

But this was my WOD earlier today in case you want to create a similar one today/tomorrow:

WARMUP FIRST
⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡
Deadly_legworkout50 ‪#Goblet Squats (with KB or dumbbell)
250m Row
25 Push-ups
250m Row
50 Alternating lunges w/25lb weight plate overhead
250m Row
25 Kippping Pull-ups (as shown)
250m Row
25 Burpee Box Jumps
250m Row
50 GHD sit-ups (or 30 reverse crunches as shown)

It took me about 18minutes. Then did a DEADLY ‪#‎legworkout . Now off to enjoy a ‪#‎FitMargarita & dinner w/Matt!

Hammies

/in , /by

HammiesWho wants more shapely hamstrings?

Kinda boring video ..I know.. but I wanted to show how these SLOW, controlled hamstring curls can be so effective if you really concentrate on isolating the muscle. I do 4 sets of 16 + 3-4 sets of ‪‎Romanian Deadlifts + 3-4 sets weighted hamstring curls.

My hamstrings are weak because I ignored them for YEARS plus I had a hamstring pull 2 yrs ago, so now it’s time to get to werrrrk!

I’ll do a typical ‪legday on the -iScope app soon

Do what you can

How often do your workouts get interrupted or cut short?
🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃
I did sprints on the treadmill & wanted to do a ‪legday‬ too but only ended up having about 15 minutes for that before I was needed. I’m a mom first & foremost ..and lots of workouts don’t happen as planned.. It’s ok, ‪never give up‬ – just do what you CAN

How often are you interrupted

Leg Day

/in , /by

5 exercises, 16-20 controlled reps (this is sped up) 3 sets!
I mixed in triceps in between sets (& I’ll post that too)

If you watch, will you click Like or share while you’re at it?? I need to know if you like these

For legs, I do a workout I’ve made up like this 1-2x a week or a combo of exercises from BodyBeastLegs, 21DF plyo from 21DayFix Extreme & ChaleanExtreme
