The 30 Minute Physique Experiment Day 30

The 30 Minute Physique Experiment Day 30


09/23/2025 Training Log: Legs


Warm up: leg raise x 20, clam shells x 15/15


Ex 1: Bulgarian Split Squats-7/7, 7/7

Ex 2: B stance RDL-12/12, 12/12

Ex 3: 14 inch box step ups-10/10, 10/10

Ex 4: offset calf raise-12/12, 10/10


Total Time = 31 minutes 


It doesn't seem like much work, but I work hard during the work that I do, and my legs felt cooked after this. Well-done even. It was nice to stretch my legs out with a walk after dinner, but they sure did feel heavy from doing this session 2 hours prior. 


I can't stress enough:


Training should be frequent, brief, challenging yet not crippling, consistent, and repeatable. After all, you should be training at least 3 days per week. And I want to train like this for the rest of my life. Therefore, creating a strong stimulus but not beating myself down or dedicating hours per day towards my workouts is a recipe for regular, consistent, high yielding lifting sessions that help me continue to improve my physique month after month, year after year, even as someone that was formerly (in my teens and early 20s) considered to be a "hard gainer."
