Hey guys, it’s Mark and Toby here with Abs After 40 – and today, we are hitting LEGS!
Leg day is important because if you perform the proper lower body exercises, you can actually boost your body’s production of the most important male hormone. Now, this is even more important for guys like Toby and me because we are both over 50.
So in this video you’ll see our T-boosting leg workout – We will also be showing you key pointers on how to avoid potential injury during some of these more intense leg exercises. Let’s get after it!
Workout Breakdown:
Complete 10-12 reps of the following 4 movements: Back squats, step-ups, leg extensions, alternating lunges.
Let’s start with warming-up on the back squat. We are going to do about 10 to 12 reps to ensure our joints and ligaments are warmed-up enough to prevent any tweaks or injuries from occurring.
Exercise 1 — Set 1: 10 reps at 185lbs
Exercise 1 — Set 2: 10 reps at 225lbs
Exercise 2: 10 reps of alternating step-ups with 35lb dumbbells
