Description: W5/6/D1 Quads/Glutes and Biceps/Back

This full body day has a focus on our quads and glutes with biceps and back incorporated! 
Feel free to superset any exercises together, however, every three exercises would pair nicely together!

Make your eccentric (downward) portion of the squat, a 3 second count. Hold for 2 seconds at the bottom and come up. Repeat!

Eccentric squat with hold

-Stand with your hips under the bar
-With one foot planted behind you, lunge to 90 degrees
- To put more emphasis on your quads versus hamstrings, make sure you have an angle to your front shin. 
- 12 reps each leg

Reverse Smith’s Lunge

- Strap one ankle into the cable machine 
- Step back so you have plenty of room- leaving your chest mostly parallel to the ground

Wide Grip Lat Pulldown
