Today was brutal. Leg day that killed! It was great! And note to self, do not do abs on leg day. I knew this somewhere in my head but realized halfway through the ab exercises. They were tough too. The reason for this is quads and glutes are big muscle groups, it is easy to tire out so it made abdominals more difficult. I usually do abs when I do shoulders as shoulders are a very small muscle group.
I did 3 supersets. Supersets are 2 exercises done back to back with 1-2 minute rest in between sets.
