Happy humpday, Darlings.
As promised, I’m sharing my first youtube video with you today!! I’ve been getting a lot of questions about leg workouts and what I do to keep my legs strong. So, I’m sharing my go to leg workout! The video is linked below as well as my favorite song atm to workout to.
Honest Darling’s Leg Burner
- 20 squats with feet parallel, toes pointing forward. Squeeze the glutes as you come up. Optional weight.
- 10 lunges to each side. Make sure to kick off of the leg you’re lunging in to. Optional weight.
- 10 jump squats. Optional weight.
- 10 back diagonal lunges on each side. Make sure to keep as much weight as possible in that front leg. Optional weight.
- 20 sumo squats. Wider stance than regular squats, toes turned out. Make sure to squeeze the glutes as you come up. Optional weight.
- 20 calf raises with your toes and heels together. Optional weight.
- 20 calf raises with your heels together, toes turned out. Optional weight.
- 20 calf raises with your toes together, heels apart. Optional weight.
- 10 single leg lifts either side. Find a focal point on the ground in front of you. Optional weight.
- 20 side squat walks with resistance band around your knees. Don’t let your feet get any closer together than when you started. You’ll see, it’s hard! Optional weight.
- 20 back kicks with resistance band around your ankles on each side.
There you have it. A killer leg workout that you can do anywhere! Those are my types of workouts. One that I can do at home, in a hotel, at the gym etc. And I promise you, you will feel it. None of this will give you extreme weightlifter quads…so don’t worry about getting too bulky. If you use a 20-30lb weight, it miiiiight take you in that direction. But for those of us girls that only use 2lbs, 3lbs, and 5 lbs? We’re good!
I hope you guys like this! Let me know your thoughts and don’t forget to ‘subscribe’ 😉
