Diana

Saray

Shey

Virginia

Cramping for sure!! Time to stretch and hydrate 🥵

Maurice

I liked this one— sometimes the short ones make me push harder

Ever Stokes

The workout was amazing my legs were literally shaking on my way out 😂 
I have a couple of questions! 
1- does this help with hypertrophy? 
2- do i need to train my lifts every week (Squats, deadlifts, bench press, push press) for them to improve?

sevine

Shaky felt the burn on this one for sure!!!

This gassed me! Didn’t have all the time so short + sweet w a bang. 

If you have time + want to add a little cardio on the end.

GOAL
Pre-exhaust those legs before heavy squats and/or build the ‘tear drop’ look without too many tears of pain #JkItHurts

DETAILS
1. Begin in a seated position on the leg extension machine. Knees are just off the edge of the seat.
2. Weight pad is resting above ankles.

5. Pulse reps can be added. 

CUES

2. On your toes, push your knees out and lower down about 2 inches.
3. Chest is up and step to the side. 
4. Do about 20 steps one direction, then 20 the other. 
5. Do not lean, or step so far that your knee falls inward and maintain tension through the band the entire time.

DETAILS
1. With a band above your knees, stand tall and begin the movement by squeezing your glute.

Straight Legged Lateral Walk

U Got This

GOAL
Sculpt those hamstrings without lower back pressure, aka isolation exercise #HamTings

DETAILS
1. Tuck your pelvis into the hip pad. 
2. Point your toes like a ballerina. The weight will just feel heavier, you're welcome. If you flex your toes, you tryna lift with your calves...don't do that. 
3. Get in a full length leg stretch then curl the weight by squeezeing from your hamstrings with a controlled negative.
4. Exhale on the curl, inhale on the negative

CUES
- Slow Negative
- Stay Focused

MODIFICATIONS
One legged - say bye-bye-bye to those imbalances. Add in quarter reps, pulses, and holds for the ultimate life-altering experience.

GOAL
Leg pump with wide steps (not longer but wide like a squat)

DETAILS
1. Stand tall shoulders back. 
2. Step one leg forward kinda out width wise. 
3. Lower down slowly keeping chest up and sending hip back slightly. 
4. Lower to where back knees almost touches. 
5. Shin of front leg remains relatively vertical. 
6. Push off front leg to stand with feet together. 
7. Repeat. Reps are total. 

CUES

- Step Wide
- Slow + Controlled

Walking Lunges

U Might Cramp

GOAL
Strengthen your leg drive with minimal spinal fading 

DETAILS
1. Feet position - Put them up high to stretch and work those hamstrings/glutes, or put them lower and closer together to smash those quads. 
2. Begin by pinning your shoulder blades into the pad, getting a proud chest, and setting your feet.
3. Un-rack the weight and lower slowly.
4. Keep the knees driving out slightly. Don't look like Bambi just coming out of the womb.
5. At the bottom, only go low enough where your lower back is still against the back pad.
6. Drive from heels to extend legs and don't lock out the knees fully at the top. We ain't tryna blow a knee.

CUES
- Back Pinned Against the Pad
- Knees Track Out
- Push from Heels

Leg Press

GOAL
Just tryna get those ankles for defined 

DETAILS 
1. Usually after a leg press, position heels off the edge of the platform.
