....high step ups, nice way to start off a leg day, warmup upto squats and pistol squats coming later in the session...will have to start loading them with a barbell soon, but the balance will be quite a challenge....I find that the concentric phase emphasises the glutes, whereas a slow eccentric phase emphasises the quads... . . . . . . . . #legdaygrind #legdayfunday #happyhumpday🐪🐫 #benchstepups #unilaterallegtraining #happyhumpday🐫 #warmup #proprioception #glutegains #glutesthatsalute #quadriceps #quadlife #quadsquad #bodyweightworkout #bodyweighttraining #calisthenics #balance #proprioception #happyhumpday🐪 #gluteusmedius #ascenttoaesthetics #ascendtoaesthetics #treetrunklegs #trainingtips https://www.instagram.com/p/ByD38WOjhD6/?igshid=1h8devis1kdso

Sunday funday?

....another Monday, another leg day. always kick it off with a cycle, 3-8 minutes at a moderate pace (30-60% intensity) just to get the blood flowing, get the synovial fluid in the knees warmed up and ready to rock and roll... . . . . . . . . . #mondaylegday #legdayfunday #legdaygains #cycling #warmup #jointhealth #prehabilitation #rehabilitation #rectusfemoris #gastrocnemius #soleus #traindirtyeatclean #flexibility #mobility #preparationiskey #consistencyiskey #journeytogainsville #ascendtoaesthetics #ascenttoaesthetics #onlinecoach #tcnutritionathlete #personaltrainer https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw2nYoAj3kI/?igshid=6r2dc22wedga

ending the week with a legday....goblet squats....powerful quad and glute builder. my new gym has rubber hexagonal dumbells, and the goblet grip is 1,000x more comfortable than with the dumbells at my previous gym, so I'm going to be hitting some big PBs/PRs very soon....anything above 30kg/66lbs just destroyed my wrists before, but that will no longer be a limiting factor...today was a lightweight session, 5x12 with 25kg/55lbs, supersetted with walking lunges🔥🔥....looking to hit 50kg/110lbs very soon.....🔥🔥 . . . . . . . . . . . . #gobletsquats #legdayfunday #legdayfriday #legdaygains #fridaylegday #fridayflex #flexfriday #dumbellsupersets #legdaysuperset #legdaygrind #legdayfeels #glutesandhams #quadsandglutes #glutesthatsalute #gainsarethegoal #onlinecoach #tcnutritionathlete #newgymnewme #newgymnewgoals #newgymnewgains #newgymnewstart #personaltrainer #disciplined #determined #ascendtoaesthetics #ascenttoaesthetics https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwu_GNLlLKB/?igshid=1ewskmyze4um9

....the leg session was a struggle today, didn't get through nearly as much as I would have liked, but I tried a new exercise variation today, some might call it a barbell front foot elevated reverse lunge, or deficit reverse lunge, whatever. I walked in with the intention of trying front foot elevated split squats, as a complement to Bulgarian squats, but my quads didn't comply with my intentions, but the hammies were feeling good. adding the height to the reverse lunge padded an extra challenge that I probably wasn't ready for to be honest, it was a steep learning curve, the demand in balance is far greater, but the stretch in the hamstrings was unreal at the end of the eccentric motion, and the glutes were firing hard to kick of the concentric motion, with a good quad flex to complete the concentric, lots of fun. using light weight today, just 60kg/135lbs, let's see if we can't increase this in the coming weeks. has anybody tried these? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #legdayfunday #itsbulkingseason #barbellreverselunges #trainandtransform #frontfootelevatedreverselunge #frontfootelevatedsplitsquats #reverselunges #hammiesandglutes #glutesandhams #glutegains #glutesthatsalute #unilaterallegtraining #unilateraltraining #balance #mobility #flexibility #ilovelegday #legdayfeels #quads #gluteusmaximus #gluteusmedius #barbelltraining #styrketræning #beintrening #legtraining #ascendtoaesthetics #ascenttoaesthetics https://www.instagram.com/p/BwVNXqtj55W/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fdx6rxyiqo68
