Lower Body for Lovely Legs

Hi girls, here is the lower body routine I did today! You can do it too, at home or at the gym.

Warm up for five minutes. Run, walk, dance your heart out, just get warm!

Complete each move 12 times, take a minute break and complete the cycle again. Aim for 2-3 times, stopping when you feel fully fatigued!

Throw in the 10 minute hiit after if you’re feeling pumped.

After, you can cool down and stretch for ten minutes.

Squats: stand with feet shoulder distance apart, knees soft, chest up and shoulders back. Squat with the weight in your heels sitting back in a ‘chair’ watch your knees.

Wide squats: Stand with your feet a little bit wider than shoulder distance and complete a squat.

Calf raise: stand tall, shoulders back, use your arms to balance you, wrap one foot behind your leg and lift up to your toes, hold for a couple seconds, then let down. Complete 12 times and switch legs.

Leg press: wrap bands around your hands, feet in bands and press until legs are fully extended. Keep back pressed to the ground. For an added challenge lift your head with your abs.

Leg extension: in tabletop hold the band with your hands and press one foot into the band. Extend foot behind you.
