Caroline Girvan - PROPER Leg Day Workout with Dumbbells | EPIC Endgame Day 1

Exactly as it says… it’s all about the legs and a PROPER good leg day! This is day 1 and we will be completing mainly compound movements to recruit more muscles, so we work a lot of muscles even though this workout consists of a smaller number of exercises! These are my favourite key exercises for the legs… over the next few weeks will come so many variations and formats! The staple is high squats! Lower slowly, gaze straight ahead and chest up throughout! Avoid excessive jarring of those knees at the top! All you will need for this leg day workout is a pair of dumbbells, a yoga block and your mat for cool down! The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 10kg each! A longer duration per exercise however that will not necessarily mean more reps completed… you will notice I am focused on each rep and taking it slow and to the best range of motion I can whilst controlling the movement… and no jerking! No excessive locking out of knees at top of movement. Aim for smooth transition between the rising and lowering portions. You will also notice during the RDLs, I really slow this down. 60 seconds is a long duration so pace yourself but use this opportunity to really ‘feel’ the hamstrings lengthen and aim to increase the stretch gently with each rep but retracting shoulders even more, chest more proud, hips back & up! The timer will be on for 60 seconds per exercise with 30 seconds rest inbetween! HEEL ELEVATED SQUAT HEEL ELEVATED SQUAT RDL RDL STAPLE: HIGH...
