I worked out my legs and shoulders last night....I can still really feel it in my quads. I have just recently started doing pyramid sets, where I increase the weight each set and I think it really makes a difference! (Verses just using the same weight for all 3-4 sets) I think I may keep doing this for awhile. It's really allowing me to feel the burn, which makes me feel like I am really accomplishing something. I'm finally starting to see some muscle in my arms, back and legs. It's so exciting - especially since I just had my 2nd son this past Spring!
Here's my most recent leg workout:
Deadlifts - 55# 1 set x 10 reps, 60# 1 set x 10 reps, 65# 2 sets x 10 sets (I LOVE deadlifts)
Squats: 45# 1 set x 12 reps, 50# 1 set x 10 reps, 55# 1 set x 8 reps
Leg Extensions: 35# 2 sets x 12 reps, 40# 1 set x 12 reps
Military Press: 35# 2 sets x 10 reps, 1 set x 8 reps
That was one of my best workouts in a long time. Seeing these improvements really helps me to stay motivated to keep exercising. =)
