Get in, we’re going leg daying!

After many setbacks, mission grow my legs is back on track. I’m feeling hopeful about squatting 205 again by the end of the year. Nervous but good. Squats have always been a bad lift for me and I regressed a TON on them postpartum but I’m sticking with it.

If you want a solid, challenging workout (that will make your butt feel like it’s on fire), try this out 🔥:

🔹Barbell back squats – 4x6 (or paused triples if you’re accustomed to lifting close to your max)
🔹Hip thrusts – 3x12
🔹Final dropset hip thrusts – 1x6/6/10
🔹Single leg supported RDLs – 3x12
Superset:
🔹Copenhagen planks – 3x20-30 sec
🔹Side lying hip raises – 3x12-15
🔹Reverse hypers – 3x25-30

You’ll get very far by repeating the basics. Make sure you’re not changing up all of your exercises every week if you’re really trying to get stronger and build muscle. Track your progress to see how much you’re improving. I know it’s not as interesting as always switching things up but your progress becomes really motivating.

Which lift do you struggle with most and do you tend to avoid it? I always have to make sure I program it in or it conveniently never gets done 🙃

Upper body cahdio finisher 💪🏻🔥.
Today PMS was my big mood. I had a big hoodie on for most of my workout and made myself a grumpy little music cave to hide in 😂🙇🏼‍♀️. Some days you feel like teee-rash but you go and get it done anyway.
-
Push circuit to push away that negativity…or at least channel it somewhere more productive 😝.
-
🔻Plyo push-ups - 5
🔻Plank walk-outs (push-up opt) - 10
🔻Hop-overs (2=1 rep) - 10
🔻Mountain climbers (2=1 rep) - 20
Rest and repeat 4x
-
I actually started with the plyo push-ups, went and did some upper body training with weights, came back to the studio and used the last three as a finisher, but you can use this as a quick upper body cardio (+strength) workout by itself 👊🏻.
-
As always, if you’re not ready for plyo push-ups, you can reduce the impact by making them regular push-ups or do them on an incline.
-
Hop-overs are a lot more challenging than they look (and will burrrn your shoulders). Attempt to get some “air time” vs just going as fast as possible.
-
Go do the thing! Aaaand I’m off to eat chocolate now 👋🏻🙈

💪🏻FULL-BODY KETTLEBELL WORKOUT – for home if you have kettlebells or the gym…if your gym has kettlebells 😝. While the vast majority of my workouts are done at the gym, I still want to give you guys accessible options.
-
You can have solid home workouts; they don’t have to mean just bodyweight kickbacks. Even if you have limited equipment available, you can and should still train your motor patterns. I labeled the video with each one used (and gave a couple options for a few) so not only can you follow this workout but you can hopefully start to learn how to switch up exercises and build your own!
-
🔺HINGE – kettlebell RDLs (15), kettlebell swings (15)
🔺PULL (horizontal) – single arm bent-over rows (12+12)
🔺SQUAT – single arm front rack kb squat (10+10), single leg chair squat, opt weighted (10+10)
🔺PUSH (vertical) – bottoms-up kb press (8+8)
🔺LUNGE - single arm front rack reverse lunge (10+10)
—>I did this as a circuit 3x - you can choose between the hinge and squat options!
-
➡️To make home training a little more challenging I also like to do one or a combination of these things:
- Increase reps
- Choose more unilateral (single leg) exercises
- Shorten rest times
- Choose a slightly more challenging variation
-
But seriously, I was shocked at how many of you requested a home-based program when I posed the question in my stories about what you wanted in my next plan. I’m makin’ plans, friends 🙃🙌🏻 (last chance for requests)

PLANKS – levels and modifying them to make them work for youuu! 👊🏻
I’m going to try and do one video weekly in this format moving forward as I think explaining using actual words (vs fitness mimery 🙈) will be a more helpful way for some people to learn.
-
While I always encourage following a program, I think it’s important to take some ownership over your workouts and make sure you’re working to your full potential and modifying things to get the best training effect for you personally (this doesn’t mean go ham and change all your exercises 🙅🏼‍♀️but knowing when you’re ready for a more difficult variation and focusing on form).
-
I don’t tend to do plank holds, preferring more dynamic core movements like stir the pot🔥, but it’s important to be able to get strong in this position as the requisite core strength is very important for other exercises; e.g. push-ups and pull-ups are also demanding on your core.
-
It’s also very important to help you develop bodily awareness – how to brace, how to move your scapula and pelvis, and what those different positions feel like. This has great transferability to positioning in other exercises.
(Note: I’d definitely add weight last out of these options)
-
I go through exercise form and different levels on my PDF programs on my website but it’s also important to take ownership no matter what program you’re on and make sure you’re being challenged at an appropriate level and if, not modify that bish!
-
Let me know if you have any exercise or topic requests and I’ll add them to my list 😊. Happy weekend, team ❤️
