05/29/2024 Training log. PPL Day 33, Legs

Warmup: single leg glute bridges, mace 360s (golly, I suck at these), hanging leg raises from the rings


Ex 1: reverse lunges-8/8, 7/7, 8/8

Ex 2: B stance RDL-3x10/10

Ex 3: single kettlebell front squats-3x10/10

Ex 4: offset kettlebell calf raise-2x12/12


Total time = 46 minutes


Sometimes it's tough to gather the gumption and hit your training session after a long day of work.


My advice: don't let yourself sit down. Just go straight to your gym, garage, backyard, beach, park, or neighbor's basement and start warming up with some simple body weight exercises. 


If you sit down and begin even thinking about anything else, you've just quadrupled your obstacles to train.


Don't give yourself that option to be tempted. 


I did the single arm front squats with support from my off hand to help out my janky shoulder. Overall, the shoulder is coming along just swimmingly. But those front squats kind of bothered it. Just a bit. Stupid ring dips...


However, I actually really enjoyed the support from the off hand. It allowed me to just focus on blasting the quads and I got a surprisingly intense pump.
