Legs – 1/10

Legs:
-10min walking (warm up)
-seated leg curls
     -superset with barbell squats

-walking dumbbell lunges
     -superset with split squats (dumbbells on shoulders)

-leg extensions

-dumbbell stiff legged dead lifts

-cable glute kickbacks
     -superset with glute kickbacks

-15min inclined walking

*This workout was focused more on building up muscle mass – I went a little heavier on movements with less reps. For example, walking dumbbell lunges were done using 20lb – 25lb dumbbells but instead of 15 per leg like I typically do, I did about 8-10 per leg.

TRAINING TIP THURSDAY: One of the top questions I get is regarding how to get defined abs, so I
want to share three of my best pieces of advice 

1⃣ Dont overtrain your abs! Yes, I’ve been there – years ago my
workouts consisted of 30-45min of cardio, then to the mat for abs –
everyday! Abs are muscles & just like any other muscle group, they
need time to rest & recover to see results! I train my abs 2-3 times
per week at most. Keep in mind, ab exercises will not give you visible
abs if lingering fat cells are covering them, so focus on decreasing
body fat first! 

2⃣ The best ab exercise you can do is to walk out of
your kitchen. No one wants to hear it, but we all know it… it’s all
about diet! Take it from somebody who ate a moderately healthy diet
with daily snacking (ME), you won’t see abs or any muscle definition
unless that diet is clean! Avoid processed food, sugary drinks, regular
even diet soda, and opt for fresh foods and eat several small meals
spaces throughout the day. 

3⃣ Consistency is key! Think of your
fitness journey as a escalator – in order to get to the top, you have to
take step after step continuously or you will be brought right to the
bottom! There is always a top step, but you can’t even stay there unless
you are consistently moving forward! Keep that booty moving everyday –
stay consistent in both your diet & workouts!
