Elizete

This leg day is a bit different because we are focusing on one movement at a time. Instead of our normal circuit style I want you to really focus on challenging yourself in each exercise.

This mini circuit warms up and gets the glutes firing for this lower body workout

With a band over your thighs above the knees 

Perform a glute bridge and push your knees out at the top of the position.

Glute bridge with Abduction

Perform a single leg glute bridge and remember to push through your heel and squeeze in your bum.

15 reps per leg

Single leg glute bridge

With a pair of dumbbells racked at the shoulders 

Band over the thighs 

Start in a squat position and hold 

Step to the right and repeat to the left. 

20 reps total

Band Lateral Step

Glute Activation

- Adjust leg extension machine to fit
- Select weight
- Extend your legs
- Release your legs back to starting position

Seated leg extension

You can sub by using a rolled up mat, book, bumper plate, or dumbbells to elevate your heels.

Heel elevated goblet squat

Make sure to squeeze at the top of the movement. 

Keep the bar close to your body and make sure that it only travels up and down.  Not out.  

MODIFY BY USING ALTERNATIVE WEIGHTS - kettlebell or dumbbells

Barbell Deadlift

This is a great isolation exercise for the hamstrings.  

A few mistakes I often see people make
1. The bar is positioned to far up towards the Glute.  The bar should be placed slightly above the ankle to allow for full range of motion. 

2. The lower back becomes too active.  Make sure that the weight is appropriate for your level of strength. 

3. Smooth the concentric and eccentric portion of the movement.  Do not sling the weight up

W1/D2 Day 2 Upper Body Push (Gym)

Omg what just happeneddd. That ending was a killer! Only 10-10-10 reps for a minute. By the 3rd minute my arms felt like jello I was laughing to myself. As always, you make these so fun and find that perfect point between doable and too hard. Yikes! This was a good one.
