Garage Gym Chronicles: 11/22/2024 Training Log. Legs

Garage Gym Chronicles: 11/22/2024 Training Log. Legs


Nice little session between clients at home.


Ex 1: Bulgarian split squats-10/10, 8/8, 6/6

Ex 2: offset kettlebell calf raise-15/15, 15/15, 15/15

Ex 3: single leg RDL-10/10, 10/10

Ex 4: reverse lunges-8/8, 6/6

Ex 5: leg curls-15,12,10


Total time = 40 minutes


I supersetted exercises 1 & 2 and 3 & 4. Since they're all unilateral exercises I did it as follows:


Bulgarian split squats right leg, rest a minute. Offset kettlebell calf raise with weight in right hand.


Bulgarian split squat left leg, rest a minute. Offset kettlebell calf raise with weight in left hand.


Repeat for 3 sets.


Calves don't take anything away from the quads and glutes, so it was a nice way to superset and save time.


I was not planning to superset lunges and single leg RDLs, but, I realized I was more crunched for time then expected, so I used the following format for 2 sets:


Single leg RDL right leg, rest a minute. Reverse lunges (right leg planted/forward position).


Single leg RDL left leg, rest a minute. Reverse lunges (left leg planted/forward position).


It was a glute and thigh burner.


Have a great weekend, for those who celebrate weekends.
