Dynamic speed leg day

Oh the thrills of having to start light again and work my way up to heavier weights. I did good speed work on the Sumo deadlift today, but squats were shaking somewhat. Hopefully, that’s just a sign they are getting used to the weights again. Considering it was low weight today,  it somewhat would worry me if I had a hard time lifting today. Still waiting for muscle memory to kick into overload. 

Warm up:

  • Hip adduction machine: 4 x 25, 50 lbs
  • resistance band body weight squats: 4 x 25, red band
  • kneeling hip flexor: 4 x 25

Workout:

  • Sumo deadlift: 3 x 8, 175 lbs
  • Sumo deadlift: 3 x 6, 205 lbs
  • Barbell back squat: 3 x 8, 135 lbs
  • barbell back squat: 3 x 6, 160 lbs

Superset:

  • Linear leg press (hamstring focus): 3 x 10, 298 lbs
  • Kettlebell plie squats: 3 x 10, 12kg

You can assume I have a love for fitness & a love for Wonderwoman -- both assumptions are correct. I am an ACSM certified personal trainer of 8+ years -- I currently reside in Ohio and live a simplistic life at the age of 29. If I am not lifting, I am eating, sleeping, traveling, exploring, or movie watching. I recently moved during a pandemic, now I am focused on self care (self love), building a business of my own in personal training, becoming a professional blogger, starting a podcast and doing things that make me happy! I am a sister, daughter, and loyal friend --- I love everyone's dog and I am on a mission to pet as many dogs as possible everywhere I go! LOL. My mission is to talk health (physical/mental), design programming, motivational speak, learn, grow, prosper, build others and make as many people smile as possible because I want nothing more than to be the change I seek in the world.
