Leg-Shocking Workout
I want to share with you a workout that will 'shock' your legs into growing.
Based on your training level - beginner or advanced -- pick one of the
following:
Beginner. Immediately after you have completed an
upper-body workout, perform two sets of squats for thirty reps (parallel or
deeper) with 135 pounds. Take only one minute rest between sets. Don't lock
out your legs while performing the exercise - this keeps the intensity even
greater. (Do this at least two days after your regular leg workout day. For
example, if you train legs on Monday, chest & shoulders on Wednesday,
and back, biceps & triceps on Friday, you would perform the squats on
Friday, not Wednesday since you just trained your legs on Monday.)
Advanced. Perform two sets of squats as outlined above,
but perform the exercise immediately after you have completed a regular leg
workout AND on an upper-body workout day.
Try this and you'll definitely raise the intensity of your leg workouts.
Note: Before embarking on any
nutrition, supplementation, and/or training program, consult with your physician
or other licensed health-care professional.
