Frequently Asked Questions

What are the goals of the program?
The goal of this program is to help you achieve toned and defined legs you can be proud of.  No more covering up with leggings or sweat pants.  No more feeling like short shorts are not for you.  I want you to learn how to isolate different parts of your legs, and how to feel like you've had a great leg day each and every time.
How to get the best outcome of the program?
You will get the best outcome of this program by staying consistent.  As a general rule, you should be training any muscle group you want to see considerable improvement in 2 times per week.  We will be focusing on a lot of time under tension, so it is very important to challenge yourself each and every time, and do your best to push to muscle fatigue (all while maintaining proper form to prevent injuries)  Focusing on stretching and mobility will also ensure your muscles are loose and everything is firing properly.
How to schedule the program into a week?
The program is broken down into 4 total weeks, of 2 workouts per week. I suggest doing 2 of the workouts each week, and continue working on progressing your weight, decreasing rest time, or focusing on other modalities of progressive overload week over week, in order to continuously challenge your muscles.  Give yourself at least 3 to 4 days of rest between training sessions. ie., if you do legs Monday, do not do your second leg workout until Thursday or Friday, in order to ensure proper recovery.
What do I need to participate in this program?
This program requires gym access.
Who are these workouts for (skill-level)?
Intermediate to advanced.  The workouts and exercises can be scaled as needed to fit your current fitness level.
