Day 19: Legs
Oh Leg Day. Funny how I can love you and seriously dislike you all at the same time. Actually, if I'm being honest, I usually love you afterwards and dislike you, maybe even have choice words with you, all the way through. So today, that will be 50 min of all the feels. :)
This is one of those workouts where you can really challenge yourself, so don’t be afraid to lift heavy—as long as you can maintain proper form. There's a sweet spot for me that if I do any heavier, I don't reap the benefits because my knee can't touch the ground in the lunge, or other things, so I think I benefit from dropping 2-3 lbs and getting more benefits from my efforts.
LETS TALK ABOUT ZZZZZZ'S! You know you need sleep, Autumn even went as far as to tell you what time to go to bed on her example of what your day looks like! Talk about obsessed alright! haha Are you getting enough? If you’re not well rested you’ll have a harder time getting through workouts, tend to be hungrier, graze, snack, etc, and it's harder to stick to your nutrition plan. You worked too hard to give up now! You're already 19 days in!
Make at least 7–9 hours a night a non-negotiable! Beachbody Performance Recharge can help your muscles recover overnight. It’s formulated with key ingredients and plant-based nutrients to support your body's own muscle repair and help support your results. If you use it, do you notice a difference in how you feel? I like to add a sprinkle of cinnamon to mine. It’s kind of like sneaking a treat right before bed.
