Leg Day for the over 50 crowd- Coach's training

I am now 52 and in a few months I'll be 53, and after over forty years of squatting I can no longer recover from the heavy squat days; therefore I have come up with a great way to still train legs and yet still recover.

Coach's Leg Day-

SUPERSET:

Prowler Pushes- start at (4) 45 lbs. plates loaded front and back on the prowler. Push down twenty yards and back. This is a warm up.
Ryan Prowler back peddle pushes- start at (2) 45's and (2) 25's loaded front and back. Push down and back.

Rest and repeat. Add  50- 70 lbs. after each set. Do 4-5 sets.

The Prowlers are no joke! The Prowler was created by Louie Simmons and are available from Westside Barbell.

The only thing close to pushing a Prowler is pushing a large 4x4 pick up truck.

I finished my day doing banded Leg Curls- 4x15 reps

Bent Knee Sit Ups- 100 reps


Have fun,

Coach Phipps
