By: Todd Opheim

Start at the beginning and at the end of the year you will be much closer to building the physique of your dreams. Click here to check it out and get started! Check out the previous workout programs of the month below.

Ham(s) and Legs Workout Program!

Last month, I gave you a workout focusing on increasing the width of you're back, as that is a personal area of weakness. My other major area of weakness is in hamstring depth and detail. With that in mind, this month's workout will focus on prioritizing hamstrings in the workout. I have changed up the exercises from last month to add some variety to the program. Rest intervals should once again be 60-90 seconds, and you should follow a 2 days on/ 1 day off/ 2 on/ 1 off/ repeat schedule.

Note: 4 x 15, 12, 10, 8 means that you should do 4 sets with the first set consisting of 15 reps. The second set should have 12 reps, the third set should have 10 reps and the last should have eight. Be sure to use weight that lets you reach failure at that number of reps. In other words, you should not be physically able to do MORE than the recommended amount of reps so pick a weight that puts you in that rep range.
