💪🏼 DAY 10 WORKOUT
Day 10 hits your legs — but it also hits your mindset. Most men don’t train the muscles that carry them through life. But you’re not most men. You’re building strength that shows up in your walk, your confidence, your leadership. NO QUIT.
1️⃣ WARM-UP (5 minutes)
40 sec work / 20 sec transition:
  • March → light jog
  • Air squats (slow + deep)
  • Hip openers (inside/outside)
  • Glute activation kicks (back + side)
  • Inchworm to plank (2–3 reps)
Purpose: Loosen hips, fire glutes, prep joints for stability work.
2️⃣ MAIN WORKOUT (22–30 minutes)
