Friends Dont Let Friends Skip Leg Day!

Todays workout consisted of a 3 miles run, which I used my Nike Running app, which is amazing by the way.  It tells you you average pace, time, and distance & gives you little "Pick Me Ups" voice cues encouraging you!

3 mile run followed by a killer plyo workout-

These exercises can be done in 30 second intervals or 15 reps each.  The last exercise in each set is to be done for 1 minute :)
Jump squat (hands in front squat and jump)
Run stance squat (running stance, 4 squats, jump switch feet on 4 count)
Airborne Heisman (Heisman pose, jump, stick hold)
Swing Kick (1 min) Pretend you have a stool in front swing legs over)
REPEAT
