Legs (02.10.21)

By Uncategorized 0 Comments

My leg workout started with some mobility, calf, and ab work:

  • Single leg calf raise- 30 reps per leg in as few sets as possible
  • Hanging knee raise (knees bent the whole rep)- x 6, 8, 10
  • Spin bike- 3 mins
  • Banded walks- crab left to right

Actual working exercises were few, but effective. Keeping total number of sets low as I am getting lighter and leaner, so intensity is still paramount on those few sets you do perform:

  1. Lying hamstring iso hold (single leg using band)- Rx50s, Rx70s
  2. BB Deadlift- 90×8, 60×20
  3. Smith squat (heel wedge)- 105×6, 70×20

More stretching and of quads, glutes, hamstrings and calves/ankles to finish.

I have worked with a range of client populations in the past. I have helped competitive athletes improve their performance through training and weight loss methods. I have experience with adult populations, drastically improving strength in individuals who are 50+. As well as specialising in manageable training methods for women looking to improve their body shape and reach a variety of manageable fitness goals. Having lived a competitive sporting career myself, I have undergone 7 invasive surgeries, some due to injury. As a result, I have a wealth of information on how to cope with, recover from, and help prevent injuries, restoring the body to a pain free state, and enabling fitness progress to continue no matter the personal issue. I can be of great service providing knowledge and guidance to keep you moving forwards through your fitness journey.
