Weight training at the gym / fitness club at our Brittany holiday cottage near Baud

Today I had another weight training session at the gym / fitness club at our Brittany holiday cottage near Baud - with an awesome leg workout.

Started of with 3 sets of leg extensions to warm up my quads and knees then performed 7 sets of front squats finishing on 3 reps for 110kg - the problem with front squats is not the weight for the legs but the ability to hold the bar on your neck , it's either to high on your neck and your finding it hard to breath or if its to low then it starts rolling down your chest.

Why do front squats? Because they put more stress on your quads and can create more of an outer sweep in your thighs.

It was then 7 sets of leg extensions followed by 5 sets of leg curls.

Below I am doing regular squats in the gym at our Brittany holiday cottage:



The gym is available for all our guest staying in La Forge and La Veille Maison.
