Doubling up on Leg Days

September 18, 2014 by Karen 1 Comment

I’m definitely a pear shape and when it comes to self critiquing, LEGS are my weakness.  Shared by the expertise of fellow Go Strong Mama, Jennifer Dolan Regina, I decided to double up on leg day. I’ll share the two leg workouts (instead of one) I did this week.

A Beautiful Mess

Post Workout out I come home to Pumpkin Oatmeal Pancakes served with eggs.  Here’s how Chris made the pancakes.

Combine
2 cups of oatmeal grind to a powder
4 oz of pumpkin puree
1/2 tsp of baking soda
2 cups of Almond Milk.  You can use less or more depending on the thickness you like
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tsp of All Spice

Then they’re ready for the griddle.

4 sets
Leg extensions (70lbs) 15 reps superset with Front Squats off Incline about bench (60 lbs) 15 reps

4sets
Hamstring curls (70lbs) 15 reps superset with Kettle bell squats off platform (35lbs) 15 reps

3 sets
Stiff leg deadlifts  with dumbells on bench (35lb) 15 reps

The two women I mentioned above are amazing! They are both accomplished competitors and Mama’s who are great resources for all women. Go Strong!

    I like both eggs and pancakes, but have never thought of eating them together! Also, pumpkin pancakes sounds super delicious. Thanks for sharing.
