Get in, we’re going leg daying!
After many setbacks, mission grow my legs is back on track. I’m feeling hopeful about squatting 205 again by the end of the year. Nervous but good. Squats have always been a bad lift for me and I regressed a TON on them postpartum but I’m sticking with it.
If you want a solid, challenging workout (that will make your butt feel like it’s on fire), try this out 🔥:
🔹Barbell back squats – 4x6 (or paused triples if you’re accustomed to lifting close to your max)
🔹Hip thrusts – 3x12
🔹Final dropset hip thrusts – 1x6/6/10
🔹Single leg supported RDLs – 3x12
Superset:
🔹Copenhagen planks – 3x20-30 sec
🔹Side lying hip raises – 3x12-15
🔹Reverse hypers – 3x25-30
You’ll get very far by repeating the basics. Make sure you’re not changing up all of your exercises every week if you’re really trying to get stronger and build muscle. Track your progress to see how much you’re improving. I know it’s not as interesting as always switching things up but your progress becomes really motivating.
Which lift do you struggle with most and do you tend to avoid it? I always have to make sure I program it in or it conveniently never gets done 🙃
