hi guys I'm Tom Johnson and today I'm
0:11
going to taking you through four leg
0:13
exercises that you must have in your leg
0:15
workout and what better way to start
0:17
this workout off than the big-daddy
0:20
itself squats this guy's has to be in
0:23
your pan I'm sorry but if squats are in
0:25
your plan you are doing something for
0:27
wrong I like to have my feet shoulder
0:30
width apart my arm either end of the the
0:34
bar just about where the grips finish
0:36
and all we're going to do we're going to
0:37
go down as low as possible
0:39
if you can't go as low as me do not
0:41
worry go as low as you can to start with
0:43
don't force yourself to go lower all
0:45
you're gonna do is end up injuring
0:47
yourself what we're gonna aim for here
0:48
guys is we may be eight to ten reps and
0:50
that will be absolutely perfect what I
0:53
like to do after squatters move on to a
0:55
hamstring exercise which is what we're
0:57
moving on to now we're moving arms are
0:58
straight leg deadlift
0:59
now key here make sure you've got a nice
1:02
grip on the bar come away from the rack
1:04
called straight leg deadlift but that
1:06
doesn't necessarily mean your legs have
1:08
to be completely straight I have a very
1:10
slight bend in money now what we are
1:13
gonna do make sure we keep that back as
1:15
straight as possible and we're gonna
1:16
keep the bar as close to our quads and
1:19
our shins as possible as we go down and
1:21
again keeping it as close to our shins
1:23
and our quads on the way back up now
1:26
reps and sets wise with this one I like
1:29
to do anywhere between five sets to five
1:32
reps but again this is down to your plan
1:34
however you want to do it that's how you
1:36
wanna do it guys but this is a fantastic
1:38
exercise for those hamstrings all right
1:41
we're moving on to hack squats now this
1:43
again is another big exercise there are
1:45
a few different variations you can do
1:46
here how we're doing this today we're
1:48
facing forward so the main emphasis is
1:50
on quads and glutes my feet are a little
1:55
bit beyond shoulder width apart and the
1:57
key with this one guys again try and go
1:59
as low as possible but as low as you can
2:01
go don't create any injuries for
2:03
yourself and then a nice powerful
2:05
movement on the way back up but again
2:08
this is an absolutely amazing exercise
2:10
if you're looking at bringing up those
2:11
quads and those glutes this is one that
2:14
to add into your leg workout right guys
2:19
so the most important leg exercise the
2:22
one that everyone gets called upon its
2:24
car this is something that you have to
2:27
have in your leg workout or you will
2:29
just get the constant grief every single
2:32
baby or wife because your car between
2:34
itself we're doing the standing calf
2:36
raise here there's nothing really
2:38
technical to go into is a few aspects of
2:40
nothing too technical make sure that
2:42
you've got the the height of the machine
2:44
at the correct height for you lower your
2:46
ankle to stretch off the car to get a
2:48
good stretch on the lower portion of the
2:51
calf and then make sure you squeeze the
2:54
car all the way to the top don't believe
2:56
that topic guys that is one the most
2:58
important bit so make sure that you
3:00
squeeze all the way up to the top and
3:02
then on the way down make sure you get a
3:04
good stretch at the bottom really
3:06
stretching off that car calf muscle and
3:08
letting all that blood rush into that
3:11
car and open that guy's that is
3:14
generally it for this machine sets and
3:16
rep wise I do anywhere between five sets
3:19
of ten or three set of 20 I hope you
3:23
enjoyed today's video if you did make
3:24
sure you give it a big thumbs up and hit
