I can get heavier weight by laying down and less pressure on my neck and back. Leg Press: 2 x 12 light/medium weight then 3 x 10-12 heavy weight Leg Extension and leg curls: 3 x 10 for both, switch between the to after each set of 10 Squats with Barbell or Kettleball of choice: 4x12... and get that booty to the ground! THIS IS HARD!!! Lunges with Dumb-bells: 10 each side (20 total..split up if necessary) Box Jumps: 4x10 ----If easy add a weighted ball-- 10 burpees and 10 mountain climbers Cool Down: 5-10 minutes easy walk on the treadmill to flush your legs out followed by rolling out💪 |
