#Lower body exercises

[suzieb-fit]

After a lazy day yesterday, I'm back on it this morning.

A good combination of resistance and cardio for my lower body to start my day.

Then the part of my day that I always look forward to - coffee and peanuts as the sun rises.

An hour later, it was out in that wonderful natural light for a muddy, but excellent walk.

Made more excellent with a lovely coffee break towards the end!

I know that was a shitpost for the latest Danny Phantom fandom meme, but I'm genuinely impressed and how authentic it sounds. How much of Dash's monologue is real advice, and how do you know all of that? Do you work out?

Yes I'm so sorry to inform my good people of Tumblr that I've secretly been a part of the gym fandom for all this time. I've only recently come out as a gymbro in this phandom via my creation of the current dp gym bro au meme that I've forced upon everyone in this good holy christian space. I mix whey protein into my overnight oats, I track my macros, and I have a closet full of Gym Girlie Outfits™️.

And just know it's a badge of honor that I carry to be able to say I've converted multiple members of the Danny Phantom phandom into regular gym goers as well 💪

Suggestions for lower body weight training workouts!

I mentioned in a previous post how impactful going to the gym has been for the fitness portion of my health and wellness journey. I previously stated that I split my gym days between upper and lower body weight training workouts and gave suggestions for upper body workouts, so I am going to dedicate this post to giving suggestions for lower body workout ideas! I group my lower body workouts by focusing on glutes and quadriceps one day and glutes and hamstrings a different day. Here are a few ideas on exercises you can do for each of those days! 

Glutes and Quadriceps: 

Goblet Squats (quads and glutes) 

Lunges (glutes and quads) 

RDLs targeting glutes (glutes) 

Quad Extensions (quads) 

Glute Extensions (glutes) 

Leg Press (quads and glutes) 

Donkey Kicks (glutes) 

Calf Raises (calves) 

Glutes and Hamstrings: 

Good Mornings (hams) 

Backwards Lunges (glutes) 

RDLs targeting hamstrings (hams) 

Donkey Kicks (glutes) 

Hamstring Curls (hams) 

Glute Extensions (glutes) 

Hip Abduction (outer hip and glutes) 

Hip Adduction (inner thigh) 

Once again, you can easily look up tutorials on how to properly do these workouts because there are so many videos online showing the correct form! For lower body days, I still do 3 sets of around 6-8 reps. As always, try out different weights to see which one works best for you. For me, when I notice it starts to get easier, I know that I may be able to move up in weight. One thing I have learned while using weight training as my main form of gym exercise is to not be afraid to try a heavier weight if you feel like it is the right time. Even if it is too heavy and you must go back to the lighter weight, there is no shame in that, and you can always try another day! Another thing is to make sure your form is correct so that you do not hurt yourself. This is especially important in lower body workouts because I have noticed before if I am doing the wrong form, it can really hurt my lower back.
