TEMPO LEG DAY… we will turn up the heat in this workout! Every muscle in the lower body will be worked today! Slow pace, full range of motion and a focus on perfect form! Time under tension is high today with slow tempo, holds and pausing included today!
The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 15kg each! Depending on the weight you have access to, also your energy levels you may wish to use 2 dumbbells where I use x1! Or vice versus, use 1 dumbbell when I use 2!
The timer will be on for a majority of work 40 seconds with 20 seconds rest! During the CALVES portion, there will be holds performed within the 20 second rest period!
