Don’t Miss Leg Day!
The dreaded leg day. The day most of us would be more than happy to make an excuse for and skip. Not me. Leg day is my favourite day! Our legs hold the largest muscle groups in our body and by building these muscles we can create a huge boost to our metabolic rate and spur on results elsewhere in our bodies. The reason most of us don’t like leg day is also because of these large muscle groups – they are so large the DOMS tends to be much more unbearable. For those who like training legs or are looking to dust of the squats and get back into it here is a killer leg workout.
Superset A
A1) Barbell Squats – 4 x 5
A2) Box Jumps 4 x 6
Superset B
B1) Barbell Romanian Deadlifts 4 x 8
B2) Pistol Squats to Bench 4 x 8 Each Leg
Triset C
C1) Overhead Dumbbell Step Ups 3 x 8 Each Leg
C2) TRX Hamstring Sliders 3 x 12
C3) Weighted Glute Bridge 3 x 12
This leg workout combines some large compounds lifts with some accessory, more targeted exercises, which will be sure to stimulate that horrible (but nice) sense of burning and inability to climb stairs for the following two days! Give this workout a go and see if you fall in love with leg day too.
Good Luck!
