Morning!

So back after around 2 months away from the gym

first session was legs

just kept everything light and high reps (12-20 )

can't do anything heavy anyway , can't believe how weak I felt

checked my weight for the first time after months and though I thought I had put on a few kilos I'm still at 57 kg

Goals this year : fix everything lol

mainly grow my skinny legs and see I can trim my midsection but I 'll leave the latter for later

current condition pics below

have a great day everyone!

@anna1

Have you thought about taking 'standard' pose pics (eg front relaxed, tensed, back relaxed, tensed etc) in the same or similar lighting - will make tracking your progress much easier. Sometimes it'll be hard for you to judge the changes in yourself from pic to pic because of the different poses, lighting etc

I keep everything at around 60% of what I can do just to avoid injuries for now

I don't feel optimum either so it's all higher reps and short breaks ( 30 sec between sets )

I think I 'll stick with that for another couple of weeks and then change my routine as I feel it might benefit me if I train legs more often

Morning !

Legs

I feel I really need to keep practicing my squats so I decided to do high rep sets . Was planning to do 100 reps in total

lol I stopped at 80 that's how pathetic I am

sets of 20 at first and then every time they were less

I could have done the 100 I suppose but my quads were so weak I was afraid I wouldn't be able to walk up the stairs afterwards

on a positive note , I think my form is getting naturally better

did the same thing with everything else

good mornings 80 reps

romanians 100 reps

leg extensions + leg curls 100 reps each

cable crunches

I think I 'll do this 3 times a week just to build up my stamina as I feel I'm out of breath easily

have a great day !

Morning!

legs

squats 80 reps

good mornings 80 reps

romanians 100 reps

bulgarian splits 50 reps each leg

leg extensions ( single leg ) 80 reps each leg

leg curls 100 reps

haven't been careful at all with calories, I 'd like to start putting on some weight . Not too much though , maybe 4-5 kilos max , so my rolls have been making a come back lol

High reps low weights for legs feel really good , at least for now , it's the first time I 've felt my legs work like this I think

especially with romanians I may have been overloading the bar and other muscles were taking over , so I'll stick with this protocol for a while longer

Have a great week !

Damn anna1 lol.

I believe high rep ranges are where it's at for legs personally. I still think low rep work need to be utilised for strength/power. but it's not absolutely necessary like some make out.

Try out the dumbbell Romanian Deadlift, I really prefer it to the barbell.

Its good to see you back in the gym after your break. I find that taking time out from time to time lets the body fully recover. I find after a short while back into training you can push through any plateaus and progress further. Just out of curiosity can I ask how tall you are?

I'm off to the gym to do legs and some abdominal work :thumbup1:

Welcome :)

yes , I felt like I needed the break but it's challenging getting back to it damn it ha

starting from a better place than I did last year though, so yes , I 'm hoping to raise the bar a little more this year

Enjoy your workout honey !
