If you’re looking to challenge yourself, pick up your heavy weight selections. If you’re looking for a relatively simple lower body routine and your focus is to move your body without overly taxing your muscles, opt for lighter/moderate weights. Whichever way you choose to approach this workout, you will get a pretty comprehensive leg-day workout in a short amount of time.
The EMOM (every minute on the minute) format adds a small element of difficulty, as you will attempt to complete a prescribed number of reps of each exercise pair within a minute’s time before the next minute-long interval. The target reps increase on the third and final/fifth round of each EMOM circuit, but your objective is to get at least 12-to-15 seconds of rest between rounds so feel free to adjust the target reps as needed (on the last round you can keep working until the buzzer sounds). The rep counts are low enough for you to safely lift your heavy weight options within each working interval, but you ultimately know which rep ranges work best for you!
This routine is a great lower body strength option for days when you want “just enough.” We scratch the surface of a high intensity muscle burn, but don’t stay in this zone for long.
I hope you enjoy this straightforward routine! Maybe next time we complete multiple rounds of the finisher? Yes?
