Description: W5/D3 - Quads & Shoulders

Can’t believe I’m this far in the program! This day made me feel so strong and confident with all the compound exercises!

Quick Q: is set A supposed to have 2 back to back SM leg press? Is it an error, or is there supposed to be a slightly different variation.

Stephanie Hinck

Always start each exercise with a warm up.
6 reps Weightless
6 reps at 40% 

Round 1 at 60% 
(able to complete 10 reps easily)
Round 2 at 70%
(struggle on your last 2 reps)
Round 3 at 80% 
(struggle on your last 4 reps)

Toes pointed out, knees out, sit into your squat aiming to get your butt on the floor, back straight, not folding forward. Keep your whole foot on the floor, the way to do that is by pointing your knees and toes OUT.

Warm Up - Low Squats

Add resistance to the band, keep your arms wide and elbows locked, rotate all the way behind you till your lower back, and then come back slowly, keeping your elbows locked.

Warm Up - Shoulders

Slightly separate your feet and step on the resistance band. Separate your arms equidistant to your shoulders. Lift all the way up right on top of your shoulders, and drop slowly all the way down.

Warm Up - Shoulders & Back

- Push your hips back as you come down in your squat
- Reach at least 90% and explode up
- keep your feet flat on the floor

Jump Squats

Place the barbell on your shoulders. Seperate you legs till your feet on slightly wider then you shoulders. Toes pointed OUT. Drop backwards into your heels as if to sit on a chair with your knees pointed OUT. Don’t let your knees collapse inwards. Shoot back up. Keep your core engaged.

Smith Machine Leg Press

- Hold the bar with hands just wider than shoulder-width apart, wrists stacked over your elbows

It wpuld be nice if you add alternative to some of the tools like the resistance band and how high is the bench
