Legs, Week 3, Days 16 Y3T

This workout was tough. The rep range is 20-25 and there was no way that was happening on single-leg squats. I was tired after the warmup. 2-3 minute rest periods, but 5 minutes might be necessary in some cases. I was tempted to skip the last exercise.

Legs, Week 2, Day 10 Y3T / drinking coke

Nothing exciting. Bi's and tri's are sore from yesterday. Leg workout was decent today. Hamstrings were definitely stimulated by the end. I drank two small bottles of Coca Cola today after I lectured clients about drinking soda. The cokes tasted like fizzy liquid candy and they were delicious, but that "shit" is bad for you. If you're trying to lose weight or reveal some abs, its not gonna happen when you drink liquid sugar.

Legs, Week 1, Day 3, Y3T / New Equipment

At my gym we have Life Fitness Elliptical machines that are not quite a year old. They aren't the top-of-the-line model, but Life Fitness doesn't make junk. So today a lady in the gym approached one of the other trainers and asked if we could get new elliptical machines, because the ones we have hurt her knees. I was trying to figure out how she could make such a request? Didn't she consider the fact that the other 900+ members might like the machines we have, or maybe its her knees that should be replaced?


Yesterday I did arms. Today I am not feeling any soreness in biceps or triceps, (not good). I worked legs today and it seemed like a decent workout. My quads were exhausted and tight afterwards which is usually a good sign.
