LOUIS' PLACE
My Passion Project
Blog 62/22/2017 Hello again, its me, Louis, back with another blog. This week has been pretty successful I have been doing some of the workouts I have been researching, and they are pretty hard. We have not had 20 time this week, because we had our retreat so I could not research any workouts. I found this one over the weekend, and did it for the first time Barbell Lunge – First, place bar on the back of yours shoulders, right behind your neck. Then, lunge forward on one leg and lower body to the ground by bending the other knee. Keep back straight! Return to standing position and repeat with other leg. You can also perform this exercise backwards. Emphasis: A long lunge stresses the gluts, while a short lunge stresses the quads. Side Lunge – Same as barbell lunge, but here you simply apply the same motions to your side. However, your lunging foot and knee should be pointing outwards in order to execute this move. Repeat on opposite side. It might take some practice to fully master. Emphasis: A long lunge emphasizes the gluts, while a short lunge emphasizes the quads. Leg Extension – You’ll need a machine for this. Sit down with back straight against the padded seat. Adjust the seat accordingly so that you can do the exercise comfortably. Then, simply put your legs behind the lever down below and extend your legs upward, keeping your back straight and butt seated. Hold your legs while extended for a second or two. Repeat repetitions until you feel tired. Emphasis: quads, but you’ll feel a twitch in your neck muscles because these help keep your body seated. In other words, the neck works as a stabilizer.
