Caroline Girvan's video: RESILIENT LEG DAY WORKOUT - Lower Body Complexes - Dumbbells EPIC III Day 7

Prepare for total leg annihilation with complexes all performed at a slow pace to minimise momentum and promote great form and full range relevant to you! The quads, hamstrings, glutes and calves will be involved throughout this session that will leave you finished feeling very accomplished! Each complex is 3 minutes duration with 30 seconds rest inbetween! For this intense session, you will need a pair of dumbbells, your mat, a chair for Bulgarian lunges and a yoga block or thick book (however you can absolutely perform this workout without elevating the heels or entire foot)! The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 12.5kg each!

What is important is that you focus on keeping chest open, hips back and feel that stretch in the hamstrings during the RDLs. During the quad focused Bulgarian lunges, think about extending the front leg so you push foot into floor and lift using the quads. Complexes as I perform them is not about as many reps as possible. This approach, particularly when lifting weights, has the possibility to have a negative effect on the quality of the reps and also if using heavier weights could lead to increase risk of injury. There are certified movements I know to perform slower and others I am comfortable to perform at a slightly faster pace. This workout is quality reps, performing each exercise to the best of your ability and promoting the mindset to push through! I was soaked in sweat by the end of this! And I absolutely loved it all!! I have no doubt you will too!!! Cx Always ensure you warm up before any workout.
