This routine was created for me by a certified personal trainer. So please make sure that you talk to a physician before you try any of these exercises to make sure they’re right for you.
Also, stretching is so important before leg day or any exercise. So this is what I’ll be starting with:
Dumbell side lateral raise
4 sets of 12 reps, resting exactly 60 seconds between sets. Begin with 5 lbs. and increase the weight if too light.
Tricep Rope Pull-down
4 sets of 12 reps, resting exactly 60 seconds between sets. Begin with 15-20 lbs. and increase accordingly if too light.
Seated Bicep Curl
4 sets of 12 reps, resting exactly 60 seconds between sets. Begin with 20-30 lbs. and be sure to increase weight accordingly if too light.
Machine Shoulder Press
4 sets. 15 reps with only exactly 50 seconds of rest in between sets. Begin with a very light weight and then increase when convenient!
Triceps cable straight bar tricep extension
4 sets, 15 reps with only exactly 50 seconds of rest in between sets.
