Leg Day!

So today I basically destroyed my legs and forgot how to drive. People think that's the only way to do it, but sometimes you need to give your body a break. 

If you're sore or just want to switch it up try doing more reps, but with a lighter weight. 

Today's Workout:
What I call two for two. 
  -two workouts doing one set at a time switching off before moving to the next two. I like to do a circuit style workout on leg day. 

First two: 
Barbell squats 3 sets 20 reps each
Barbell straight leg dead lift 3 sets 15 reps each
(30 lb barbell)
Next:
Cable pull through 3 sets 15 reps each (22.5 lbs)
Cable kick back 3 sets 12 reps each leg (17.5lbs)
Next: 
Goblet squats 3 sets 12 reps (27.5 lbs)
Body weigh squat jumps 3 sets 12 reps
Next:
Box jumps on a medium size box (don't know the height) 3 sets 12 reps
And lunges with my leg on the Box 3 sets 15 reps per leg
Next:
On a mat I donkey kicks straight in the air 3 sets 12 reps each leg
Then side lifts 3 sets 12 reps each leg
I did a power set of each less reps and faster at the end. 

Cardio:
20 min stair master
1 min- level 8
Min2- level 9
Min3- level 10 alternating leg kick back
Min4- level 12
Min5 level 20
(Repeat3xs)
And for the last five mins alternate between level 12 and level 15 then a 4 min cool down.
