I started hitting the gym a little over a month ago, and would like some advice on a routine I wrote for myself. I’m still mostly a beginner but have been doing a ton of reading on the subject so hopefully the routine is decent. Going more than 3x a week isn’t really much of an option for me, though I wish I was able.
I also need to keep my total training time to around an hour due to time constraints with my job. So, here’s the routine:
Legs Monday
Squats - 10/8/6/4 ______ ______ ______ ______
Leg Press - 3x8 ______ ______ ______
Leg Extension - 3x12 ______ ______ ______
Lying Leg Curl - 4x10 ______ ______ ______ ______
