Leg day
KEY MOVEMENT:
Squat
Overview
Training your legs is tough but extremely beneficial. Your core will also be worked, and squats provide a solid base of strength for many natural movements in life. The Strongly plan has you training shoulders on the same day as legs. This is to reduce your days in the gym, but also as a lot of the setup is the same.
