13 Weeks 6 Days Out from THE BRITAINS Training Log...Legs

Monday Leg Session!
I take a number of warm-up sets and exercises before leg sessions in particular.
Make sure you stretch your hip flexors as well to facilitate and allow your glutes to fire more effectively.

 Squats (Choose your own appropriate weights)

150kg x2 Good Form x2 Sucky form (so I went too heavy)- Will be trying for x3-4 good form next week
140kg x4 Good form- x5 next week
130kg x6 x6 x6 x10 All good form- more reps on last set next week

Front Squat/ Walking Lunge Superset- heavier dumbbells next week!
100kg x12 10kg Dumbbell Walking Lunge x20
100kg x10 10kg Dumbbell Walking Lunge x20
100kg x8 10kg Dumbbell Walking Lunge x20
100kg x6 10kg Dumbbell Walking Lunge x20

Single-Leg Extension
15kg x20 Each Leg
15kg x20 Each Leg


 The single leg extension seemed to put a huge amount of pressure on my knee ligaments, and the weight was very light, so I wouldn't recommend including these in your leg workouts.

I won't be again.

The single-leg extension will be replaced by split-squats.

 Everything else was awesome!

Let's see if I can do more next week!
