Lower Body Circuit


I shared more of this circuit previously in pictures, but I finally got around to making it in video form! View the extended print version here.

This is just a short clip demonstrating some of the moves.

Begin with a 5 minute warm up of light movement, to get your muscles and joints warm and your heart rate up.

In sequence without rest perform 12 repetitions of each:

Standard Width Squat: feet below shoulders, toes slightly turned out and sit back into your heels.

Calf Raise: feet below shoulders, weights by your side, come up on your toes, hold for a second and release back down.

Plié Squat: stand with your feet wider than shoulder distance, toes turned all the way out. Hold one weight in both hands and squat down. You should feel this in your inner thighs.

Leg Press with Bands: lie flat on your back, wrap the band around the bottom of your feet and pull tight with your hands. Press your legs out straight and return to your chest.

Rest for one minute after completing the circuit and repeat, 1-2 times.

Cool down and stretch for 10 minutes post exercise.

**this workout is not suitable for everyone and does not come without risk. Always consult your physician before beginning any new fitness routine. This workout was not created for the individual and is not adjusted to meet personal needs.
