This 30-Minute Leg Day Workout is ALL LEGS and ALL STRENGTH TRAINING. You’ll use a set of dumbbells to challenge your entire lower body. Targeting your glutes, hamstrings, quads, calves and core.
The goal is to fatigue and break down the lower body muscles to build strong, lean legs.
THE WORKOUT: 30-MINUTE LEG DAY WORKOUT
EQUIPMENT: Medium-to-heavy dumbbells, or a set of both medium and heavy dumbbells. I’m personally using 10 lb dumbbells for this workout video and would suggest 8-20 lb dumbbells depending on your fitness level.
INSTRUCTIONS: Follow along with the leg day workout video at the top of this post. This lower body workout consists of 4 circuits — squats, lunges, deadlifts, sumo squats.
Each circuit targets a specific lower body muscle group:
Circuit 1: Lunges — target quads and glutes
Circuit 2: Squats — targets quads, hamstrings and glutes
Circuit 3: Deadlifts — target hamstrings and glutes
Circuit 4: Sumo Squats — target quads, hamstrings and glutes AND have an extra bonus of incorporating the adductors or inner thighs
These circuits consists of 3 lower body strength exercises. You’ll perform approximately 10-12 repetitions per exercise, and repeat each circuit x 2 sets to close it out before moving onto the next circuit.
I’ll be sweating with you through each rep and giving you proper form and motivation along the way!
