Can’t feel my legs after this one 😅🔥

That single leg bridge was the most challenging but I love to see what my body is capable of doing 💪🏼

Loved the workout I wish I could of done the hack squat good mornings but someone wouldn’t let go the machine so I improvised.

The single leg glute bridges were TOUGH!!🥵🔥But this was a great leg workout!!

Steady State Cardio 20min

4 sets of 10-12 reps

- Standing with your feet shoulder-width apart, take a deep breath to engage your core and hinge your hips backward
- After lowering your upper body parallel to the ground, feel that stretch in your glutes and hamstrings and return back to starting position by digging your heels into the ground

Hack Squat Good Morning

5 sets of 8-12 reps
Go as low as you can for your personal range of motion and body mechanics. Ass to grass works for some people depending on their flexibility, but it’s not necessary for glute growth. Hit parallel or below and sink your butt back.

- Begin with bar positioned on your upper back
- Brace your midline and keep your chest up
- Eyes forward as you lower, sitting back and down
- Reach parallel and push through your heels to come back up

BB Back Squats

4 sets of 12 reps
Slow and controlled. Squeeze your quads for a second before lowering the weight. No swinging!

- Select the desired resistance on the weight stack and insert the pin
- Adjust the seat so that the knees are directly in line with the axis of the machine
- Sit down and position your shins behind the pad at the base of the machine
- Take a deep breath and extend your legs as you flex your quadriceps
- As you lock out the knees, exhale to complete the repetition
- Slowly lower your feet back to the starting position

Leg Extensions

4 sets of 12 reps

- Sit down on the machine and place your legs on the platform directly in front of you at a medium (shoulder width) foot stance
- Lower the safety bars holding the weighted platform in place and press the platform all the way up until your legs are fully extended in front of you (Make sure that you do not lock your knees)
- Your torso and the legs should make a perfect 90-degree angle
- As you inhale, slowly lower the platform until your upper and lower legs make a 90-degree angle
- Pushing mainly with the heels of your feet and using the quadriceps go back to the starting position as you exhale
- Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions and ensure to lock the safety pins properly once you are done

Close Stance Leg Press

3 sets of 12-15 reps each leg

- Keep your core engaged the entire time
- Pause at the top, squeezing your glutes for one to two seconds
- Then lower back down to the start
- Complete all your reps, then switch legs

Well I was excited did the BB back squats without the smith machine. First time I did this I lost my balance and got scared put the bar back in rack and ran away. Today I did all 5 sets!!!!
