LEG & BUTT BLASTING WORK OUT

WARNING summer is coming and your legs are about to start wearing shorts and/skirts. Try this amazing lunge, squat and tapping combination with a step or on the floor for great results. Be prepared and get the legs that shorts want to wear this summer with our awesome leg shaping work out…

Lunge & Squat Sequence

Try about 15 of these on each leg with the emphasis on keeping strong & steady through the whole sequence. Ensure you keep every movement equal in time so it takes as long to do the lunge as it does to hold the knee up. Don’t rush as the slower the movements the longer the muscles are under tension and working harder. You can repeat the sequence again if you feel you need more, up to 3-4 times.

Rise, Squat & Back Tap Combo

This combination brings a cardio element to your resistance workout, as the dynamic movements shunt the blood up and down the whole body, while loading the stationary leg with your body weight. Again keep each movement equal in time with about 15 repetitions on each leg. You can repeat the combination 3-4 times.

To mix things up a little, try going from the Lunge & Squat Sequence into the Rise, Squat & Back Tap Combination alternating between exercises to shock your body into change.

Disclaimer: As with any type of physical activity, it is advised you warm up for 5 minutes before commencing exercise, followed by 5 minutes of stretching upon completion. These exercises are designed as a basic guide and professional consultations should be taken before commencing any exercise.
