Ahh, yes, THERE are my hamstrings!!

Yesterday I did a great workout for my lower body and today I feel it most in my hamstrings. AWESOME! I may have to make up some names for some of the exercises I did so just bear with me.

Leg Extensions - 1x20, 2x15 single leg
Smith Machine Squats - 1x20 40#, 1x12 70#, 2x8 90#
Leg Press (lever - Cybex) - 3x10 180#
Single Reverse Leg Press (got back in that leg press backwards and no weights - LOVED this!) - 3x12 each leg
Jumps with plate (no momentum coming down to parallel squat) - 2x12 feet hip width, 2x12 wide stance, 1x12 alternating wide and medium stance 25# plate
Good mornings - 3x10 45#/55#/55#
Deadlifts - 3x10 85#

Homemade "sled" drag (stacked 2 45# plates on my towel and folded it in half, grabbed the corners and cleaned the floor dragged across the floor in a low squat) - about 10 yards (30 steps or so) one way - 2 sets of full round (~60 steps)
Plate push (same stack of plates but getting low and pushing across floor) a set going both ways! OW!
Back Extensions (as demonstrated in the video below) - 1x12 bodyweight only, 2x12 10# plate
NICE STRETCH and FOAM ROLLING after!! Don't forget that! Very important!



Yes, this workout kicked my booty. It was a long workout but a good workout! I was working out with my BF at a new gym to me and just got carried away doing new exercises. It was fun though! Feel free to try some or all of it and let me know what you think.

That's about it! Enjoy!
