FUNCTIONAL LEGS!
8 WEEKS WORKOUT PROGRAM By Andrea Larosa.
KEY SYMBOLS:
Effort Level (EL):
Effort Level refers to the rating of 1-10 and will describe how hard
the set is for you.
A “6” would be moderate, “9” would be very hard, and “10” is
complete muscle failure.
The required EL is always the priority.
It will always be your responsibility to determine if an exercise is too easy or hard to match
desired EL. If it is, please adjust the repetitions accordingly.
That means if you have to do a repetition less or more to hit the targeted EL, please do.
Supersets (+):
Exercises joined together by a “+” must be completed in a superset. This is when multiple
exercises are performed back to back with NO rest.
Example:
Air Squat 90° Hold (TUT: 10”) + 10 Air Squats.
Time Under Tension (TUT):
Is the amount of time you have to hold a certain isometric position.
Example:
Air Squat 90° Hold (TUT: 10”) It means you have to hold the position of 90° Squat for 10Seconds.
Warm up:
10’ of light exercises designed to increase the body temperature before EVERY workout.
The goal is to get the blood flowing and brings fluids to the joints.
A specific warm up is indicated in the first box of every training.
Yellow text.
Stretching:
15’ of stretching at the end of EVERY workout.
Be sure to hold every position for at least 30”- 40”.
(Pictures of the exercises are under the “stretching” section at the end of the program)
IMPORTANT:
• Read each training day carefully and pay close attention to the pictures at the end
of the program before starting the training.
• Please, don’t skip the exercises just because you already did them in the same
training.
• If you can’t hold a position for the entire time, rest for a moment and then start
again from when you paused. Always take in consideration the Effort Level!
• Remember to breath during every exercise!
• Remember to squeeze your gluteus during every exercise!
• Train 2 per week. Rest 48-72 hours between the 2 sessions.
• Be sure to be able to complete the training before going into the next week of
training.
