Lower Body workout: Quads (Bodyweight Squat), Push-up and 4 more

A lower body day of 6 exercises and 14 working sets, built by a SPLYT user and published without their name. It takes about 30 minutes and uses bodyweight and barbell.

Most of the work goes to the quads (5 sets), chest (3 sets), abs (2 sets). It opens with quads (bodyweight squat) and finishes with glute bridge march.

No rest times were set, so rest about two minutes after heavy compound lifts and about a minute after isolation work.
