Description: W4/D4 Legs & lower back

best leg / lower back workout on this program.  feel stronger than the first leg / lower back workout on this program.  even if it's a sickly good workout, it's a bit of a shame that it's repetitive during the program.  have had sick muscle eache after each session tho, so not complaining. 
Now im feeling pumped, energized and ready for today!

Shellane

Go as heavy as you can with good form. Try to increase the weight each set. 

Superset Exercises if you’re short on time.

Keep core tight, squeeze glutes as hard as you can for a 2 sec hold at the top of the movement.

Reverse Hyperextension

Brace your core and focus on constant tension on your quads. First 2 sets are warmups. Last is a dropset

Leg Extension

Drive hips into pad, focus on control the weight and your hamstrings

Lying Hamstring Curl

Feet about shoulder width apart, slow and controlled. Last set is a dropset

Leg Press

Stretch as much as possible on the way down and squeeze glutes at the top
 of the movement.

DB Sumo Squat

Feet close together but not touching, slight bend I your knees, shoulder back/locked in, drag weight down your legs, only come 3/4 of the way up to keel tension in your hamstrings

DB Straight Leg Deadlift

Keep slight bend in knees, slow and controlled

Leg Press Calf Raise

Want a good mid stride here. Ties straight ahead or pointed out slightly, do not let your knee cave in.

DB Walking Lunge

Sit at an abductor machine with your feet on the footrests and your hands on each handle grip. Your thighs will be on the inside of the leg pads. This is your starting position.
Step 2: Exhale as you push your legs against the thigh pads, separating your legs as far as possible.
Step 3: Hold for a moment and then inhale as you slowly return to the starting position.
Step 4: Repeat for a complete set.

Abductor Machine

• Adjust seat width so that you feel a slight stretch on your adductor muscles when your inner thighs are placed on the pads.
• Sit tall with proper posture ** Lean
Forward for advanced 
• Knees should be bent at approximately 90 degrees or more.
• Place feet on foot level or platform.
Upward Phase:
• Slowly squeeze your thighs together.
• Keep feet straight and pointed forward.
• Keep knees over feet.
• Hold Squeeze a few seconds at the end of movement.
Downward Phase:
• Slowly release your squeeze.
• Stop just short of the starting position.
• Repeat until desired repetitions are met.
• Don’t allow weight to slam back to starting position.

Adductor Machine

If you can elevate your heels do so, if not heels are the ground are fine. 

Get into a glute bridge position
Flatten out lumbar spine
Tuck neck into chest
Dig elbows into ground and make fists
Put bottoms of feet together and scoot heels as close to butt as possible
Bridge into the air while maintaining position, repeat. Squeeze your glutes.

The tricep exercises were definitely challenging. The slow motion gets you at times. At the end it’s a superb feeling to know that you are growing stronger with one set at a time

Really great workout, Also found a newly built gym in neighbourhood, so that was fun!

Good and really heavy arm workout if You maximize! Felt great and strong!

W2/D3 Shoulders, Arms &Glutes

There is definitely a significant improvement for second week compared to first one. It actually took me by surprise. Love every bit of it. This time my deadlifts were in super good form 😀.

I dont know if it was the PWO (that may have been quite strong), the sunny monday or the fact I havent been on the gym in a week, but a few PB was broken probably to the fact I am not beeing able to walk tomorrow… 🙃

Yo! Lean forward on the adductor/abductor machine and tell me what your booty feels like! 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
