Second workout with jackknife squats. I notice a lot of joint popping when standing up from the squat, but it appears that by watching form closely I can minimize this effect. I've had knee trouble in the past, so I'm trying to move very carefully. That didn't stop me from bumping up my reps. Slow and careful, but trying to find my ceiling. Good news is, muscles were struggling by the end of the last set, so I know I'm doing something right.
The leg lifts are still tough, but doesn't seem to be related to an injury or any strain; just weakness leaving the body, as they say.
Warm up:
10 minutes on treadmill (~ .8 miles)
1x5 Jackknife squats
1x5 Knee tucks
Main workout
2x20 Jackknife squats
2x15 Knee tucks
Final set
1x25 Jackknife squats
1x21 Knee tucks
I need to start adding Trifectas as a warmup.
