Legs

- Hack squat

- 45 degree leg press

Complete each exercise for 5 sets with the first three exercises and 4 sets for every other exercise after that with repetition ranges in-between 8 & 10. Take 60 seconds rest between sets. 

If you are lifting weight with rep ranges in between this range you should start to be feeling the burn on the 6th rep, if you’re not then the weight is too light. You are on the level of an ELITE athlete. You should be testing your limits every single session.

- 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

Barbell back squats

- Slowly lower the bar with a slight bend in your knees, hinging at the hips and keeping your back straight
- Lower weight until you feel a slight stretch in your hamstrings
- Drive your hips forward and use your hamstrings to power back to standing

Barbell RDL

- Start with a shoulder width stance
- Keep your back on the pad as you lower down
- Reach parallel and push through your heels extending your legs to come up

Hack squat

- Lie face down on the leg curl machine, stretching your legs out fully
- The roller pad should rest a few inches over your calves, just above the heels
- Grasp the support handles on each side of the machine
- Exhale and flex your knees, pulling your ankles as close to your glutes as you can
- Keep your hips firmly on the bench.
- Hold briefly at full contraction 
- Inhale as you return your feet to the starting position in a slow and controlled movement

Lying leg curl

- Begin with dumbbells in each hand and feet hip width
- Press hips back and lower dumbbells down until mid shins
- Lift back up to standing and press hips forward
