Description: Quad Focused Leg Day

Today is a quad focused leg session so we’ll start with front squats, and move into other lower body pushing movements.

- Stack your shoulders hips and heels over each other
- Don't allow yourself to lean forward, keep your chin and eyes up
- Sit your hips back and down until you reach parallel 
- Push through your heels to stand up

NOTE: can add resistance bands (optional). To do this you would use a band on each side of the bar. Attach to the bottom of rack, and stretch to just outside of where the plates are.

Barbell front squat

- Keeping your back flat against the pad
- Lower your legs towards your chest
- Drive through your heels to press the sled back to starting position

TEMPO: 3 sec descend, 2 sec pause at bottom of each rep.

Leg press - mid stance

- Place your feet hip-width apart, and dumbbells at your sides
- Take a big step to the side
- Land with your heel, flex the knee to lower your hip and body until your knee and hip are at a 90 degree angle 
- Keep opposite leg only slightly angled
- Return to the starting position by extending your hip and knee 
- Once they are straight, bring your foot back in to a standing tall position

Lateral lunge (dumbbells)

- Sit on the machine with the pad at the bottom of your shin 
- Extend your legs engaging your quads
