Most of the time when I train legs I aim to do heavier, more compound moves to help grow and shape my lower body. Today I was a bit sore, slightly less energy so I wanted to focus more on some lighter exercises with more reps. I shot a quite, gritty, raw & real video to give you some ideas of what you can do in the gym when you aren’t doing heavy back squats or dead lifts. I did all exercises for 4 sets of 10-15 reps always super setting exercising to keep my heart rate up. I finished with a 20 minute high incline walk on the treadmill. For my pre-workout today I did 1 scoop of Cellucor C4 Ripped Cherry Limeade and throughout my workout I sipped on a shaker bottle with 1 scoop of Cellucor Alpha Aminos in Watermelon for recovery.

Throughout the day I sip on I am Nutritionals Glutamine powder (Use code JERSEYGIRL15 for 15% off any purchase) and aim to drink one gallon of water each day. I carry around a 2.2 liter water jug now to help keep me sipping all day long. I also add some sliced lemons, cucumbers and raspberries for flavor.

It’s always important to change up your workouts to keep you motivated and enjoying going to the gym. I don’t follow a program right now and the only thing I know walking into the gym that I am going to do is the body part. I do upper body and lower body splits. I allow myself to choose 7-8 exercises and super set them and then do some cardio. I don’t want to follow a strict routine right now but when the fall and winter come I will be back doing the Crush Fit 60 day program which I loved doing.
