Lower Body Workout

 Once upon a time I told you I'd give you a little more detail on my plans for "lower body" and "upper body". I'm very thankful for a fantastic friend of mine who helped me put this together. He's amazing and a huge inspiration to me! Thank you!

These are done in Super Sets... you'll go through each list three times before moving onto the next set of exercises.  I'm not going to post the weights to use pick something that is comfortable but challenging and pick whatever your favorite core is, mix it up, make it something that you enjoy doing!

Warm up for 5 mins on cardio machine


Set #1 (x3)
