LEGS (Hamstring Focused)

- Barbell Deadlift
- Sumo Stance Leg Press
- Barbell Hip Thrust 1 1/4 Rep
- B Stance Dumbbell RDL
- Rounded-Back Extension
- Abduction Machine

- Approach the bar so that it is centered over your feet
- Take a big breath and then lower your hips and flex the knees until your shins contact the bar
- Look forward with your head
- Keep your chest up, begin driving through the heels to move the weight upward
- After the bar passes the knees aggressively pull the bar back, pulling your shoulder blades together as you drive your hips forward into the bar
- Lower the bar by bending at the hips and guiding it to the floor
- The bar path should be straight up and down in the pull and as you lower the bar

4 x 6

Barbell Deadlift

- Using a leg press machine, sit down on the machine and place your legs high on the platform directly in front of you at a wide , toed out foot stance
- Lower the safety bars holding the weighted platform in place and press the platform all the way up until your legs are extended in front of you (Tip: Make sure that you do not fully lock your knees during this exercise)
- Your torso and the legs should make a 90-degree angle
- Inhale, slowly lower the platform until your upper and lower legs make a 90-degree angle
- Pushing mainly with the heels of your feet and using the glutes, extend your legs, pressing the platform back to the starting position as you exhale
- Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions and ensure to lock the safety pins properly once you are done

4 x 10

Leg Press - Sumo Stance

- Sit on the ground with a bench behind you, bending your knees so your feet are planted on the ground and holding a barbell resting below your hips
- Lean back so your shoulders are on the bench and position the bar above your hips
- Drive your hips up lifting the bar
-  In the top position your knees should be bent at 90° and your shoulders should be near the top of the bench, with your body forming a straight line between them
- Pause at the top of the lift and squeeze your glutes
- Lower 1/4 if the way, then drive the hips back up to the top position 
- Lower your hips slowly all the way down to starting position

4 x 6

Barbell Hip Thrust 1 1/4 Rep

- Step one leg back where the toes are at least in-line or past the heel of the front leg
- The heel of the back foot should be off the ground with only toes lightly touching the floor
- Slowly lower the dumbbells with a slight bend in your knees, hinging at the hips and keeping your back straight
- Lower the dumbbells until you feel a slight stretch in your hamstrings
- Drive your hips forward and use your glutes and hamstrings to power back to standing
- Complete desired reps then repeat on the opposite side

4 x 8 each side

B Stance Dumbbell RDL

- Start in the prone position with your arms crossed forward off the shoulders
- You want to internally rotate your shoulders and deliberately round your upper back, to make sure the majority of the tension is in your glutes on the contraction
- As you descend, you’ll feel most of the tension in your hamstrings, but some will be in your glutes
- Go to a range of motion that gives you a good stretch in your hamstrings but if you don’t feel a massive stretch here, that’s okay because this range of motion will vary depending on your individual mobility and flexibility
- Pause for a second at the top and bottom, and initiate the movement by contracting your glutes as hard as possible, back to the starting position
- Try to imagine initiating the movement by squeezing your butt cheeks together
- Remember to keep your upper back rounded so you don’t begin to rely solely on your lower back for the movement

3 x 20

Rounded Back Extension

3 x 10 heavy 
(no rest between)
3 x 10 half the weight

- Setup in an upright position with your back against the pad and your spine neutral
- Exhale and push the legs apart as you open the pads
- Once your hips are fully externally rotated, slowly return to the starting position

So if I’m a total newbie I don’t know how much weight your lifting in these sets. I’ve been lifting for about two years again so I had a starting off point but maybe I’m missing where your putting how much weight your repping on these.
