Yeah look at me go!!
Well....AHEM.....not quite lol!
Today was the first day of the NEW programme and day one is....LEG DAY.....
A punishing schedule of high reps quick succesion sets of quads / hamstrings and calf exercises to help improve my muscles endurance ability.
I didnt wear my garmin today as there was little cardio work in todays programme. It went something like this....
5 mins warm-up on bike
1 x static squat to failure
15 x squats x 3 sets with 15 secs break between each set
15 x alternate leg lunges with dumbells (30 in total) x 3 sets with 15 secs break inbetween each
15 x one leg squats x 3 sets with 15 secs break inbetween
15 x leg extensions on machine x 2 sets with 15 secs inbetween
15 x leg curls x 3 sets with 15 secs break in between
15 x dead lifts x 3 sets with 15 secs break inbetween
15 x calf raises x 4 sets with 15 secs break inbetween
static calf raise to failure on each leg
15 x adducter x 3 sets with 15 secs inbetween
15 x abductor x 3 sets with 15 secs inbetween
5 mins cool down on bike
Abs and stretches to finish
Limp back to changing room with jelly legs and realise you forgot towel, shower and dry yourself with t-shirt.......again **rolls eyes**
Get dressed and realise you forgot socks....put on gym socks after spraying with deodorant!
Go to work and walk round the office like an arthritic fool!
