Leg Workout at Home

Below is a little leg workout I designed to get your legs and bum working. This routine requires very little equipment, so is ideal for workouts at home. If any exercise is too difficult for you to do, don't just exempt it, adjust the exercise until it's doable. Don't adjust it so much that it's easy however. If you find it hard to do this workout alone, why not get someone to join you - either someone in your household or someone virtually.

I work my legs and butt twice a week. Try this workout once a week if you're beginning. If your booty and legs can handle it, throw in a second day and see how you go with reps and sets. Just make sure you don't miss any key muscle groups in your legs if you swap any exercises.

Happy Leg Day!

Make sure you warm up before beginning this routine with some light cardio like skipping and/or a quick jog (5-10 minutes) or else a quick HIIT set. Also, don't forget to stretch before and after your workout. I hope you like this little routine that requires minimum equipment, but still burns.
