Lower Body:

Tip: Welcome back to another training cycle

On Mondays, for the next six weeks, we will emphasize the lower body in the following formats..

Station1: he back squat will be performed each week,

Station 2:This section will emphasize single-leg squatting strength. Week 1 will be deficit split squat, week 2 will be rear foot elevated split squat, and week 3 will be heel elevated deficit split squat. Each week, they will progress through more range of motion at the knee, leading to a greater and greater stimulus for the quad.

Station 3: This section will include hinging and quad-dominant squat exercises. The hinge and higher rep (lower load) squat will nicely complement the two previous sections.

Station 4: Calves and lateral abdominal/core muscles will be the focus here.
