Its the beginning of week 4 here at facelessfitness.com and we’re kicking it off with Leg day! A lot of people out there either don’t like leg day or tend to skip it in favour of the upper body quick win workouts. Similar to a well clevaged woman stating excuse me my face is up here…you can’t help but stare at the tiny legs of a man who has always skipped the day in place of maintaining his upper body physique.
“Excuse me brah, my muscles are up here…”
Do not skip your leg day, you have the really big muscle groups that can’t really make the difference during your 12 week transformation. Me, I love leg day!

Comment: Hahaha – angry crazy laugh! This is so difficult when every leg muscle is already spent but push through and get it done!
Weights Mood: Super start! I’m learning more about my body with every session and really pushing myself hard!
Cardio: 22 mins – Low intensity – Walk
We are incrementally pushing our cardio activity up by 2-3 minutes each week from now on! It may not seem like much but will keep pressure on our body to continue to adapt without making such a leap that we plateau and can not promote any more change!
Cardio Mood: I walk 22mins and it’s done, don’t skip it!
Fantastic Leg day session! Great start to week 4, onwards and upwards!
