Today you will warm up with a 10 minute cardio session. I have you doing the elliptical but you can do any cardio of choice for your warm-up! 

Lets Go !!!!

If you’ve ever been short on time, or just needed to power through a workout to get to the other side, you may have decided to skip the few minutes of warming up and jump right into your workout. 

We’ve all been guilty of this, but the few minutes of warming up (seriously, it takes five minutes) can make a huge difference for our performance during and after the workout. By literally “warming up” your muscles by increasing blood flow and raising your body temperature, you can maximize your cardio routine even more.

Do a 5 - 10 minute warmup. Options: 

GYM- Treadmill, Stair-master, Elliptical, Row Machine, jumprope

HOME- Run or fast pace walk, jumprope, do a cardio circuit from my cardio circuit portion of the app.

Cardio Warmup of choice (See description for important info)

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

Seated leg extension

Step 1: Load your desired amount of weight onto the machine and sit down on the leg press seat.

Step 2: Place your legs on the pressing platform with a shoulder-width stance in front of your torso in the centre of your body.

Step 3: Disengage the safety levers on either side and take hold of the handles to your sides.

Step 4: Press the weight until your legs are extended but not locked out. Take a deep breath and lower the weight slowly until your upper and lower legs make a 90° angle (this is the eccentric portion of the movement).

Step 5: Exhale and drive back up through your heels (quadriceps focused) until the platform returns back to the starting position.

Continue to perform your desired amount of repetitions.

Seated Leg Press

12 reps per leg to complete 1 set.

Start by loading weight on the bar, stand straight under the smith machine bar, placing it on the back of the shoulder and keeping your feet shoulder-width apart. Standing in that position, take a step backward and squat down on one leg so that your back knee almost touches the floor. Push upward to return to the initial position.

Reverse Lunge on Smith Machine Tips

Pause for a few seconds at the bottom of the movement to extend the duration of each set thereby increasing the intensity.

Alternative Exercises
Barbell reverse Lunge
Dumbbell reverse Lunge

reverse lunge smith machine

- Hold the dumbbell at chest height
- Push your hips back and keep your chest up as you come down 
- Reach parallel and push through your heels to come up

Increase weight after every set !

DB goblet squat

Start by placing your upper back against a bench with one knee bent at about 90 degrees and the foot of the same leg flat on the floor — this will be your working leg.

Lift your other leg, bending your knee until both your hip and knee form a 90-degree angle.

Lay your arms out flat on the bench, or bend your elbows to rest your head in your hands. Focus on using your upper back as a pivot point as opposed to using your elbows to create force and drive the movement.

Contract the glute of the working leg and lift your hips until they’re in line with your torso.

Briefly hold this position while continuing to squeeze your glute, and finally, return to the starting position.

Repeat these steps for the other glute until the desired number of reps and sets is reached.
