Monday 1/30/2023 Daily Gym: Leg Workout
Happy Monday, Team! Today starts a new 4-week cycle.
And you know what that means... TESTER WORKOUTS!
At the beginning of each 4-week cycle, we start new main lifts that we will gradually progress and add weight. Following our main lifts we will do a tester workout, where we will score or time in order to retest in week 4.
Tester workouts are an easy way to track progress and push yourself to improve!
