Lean, Mean, and Sexy Legs!

Hi Everyone!

Hope you had a great weekend, and for those of you that celebrate a happy Cinco de Mayo! This week our workout is all about those legs. Getting them lean and mean for the summer time. It's time to start brining out those shorts and skirts! I have also incorporated some abs as well.

Minimal equipment is needed for this workout so if you have a kettle bell or dumbbell, you can do this workout wherever you want! There are 2 different circuits each one will be preformed twice with abs and plyometric movements in-between. Then both circuits will be preformed together with no break at the end. Meaning you will be doing 5 rounds or circuits, 3 ab breaks, and 2 plyo breaks.

Equipment: Matt or Kettlebell or dumbbell

Here we go!

  • Please use caution when preforming this exercise!

    • If you can not go down all the way that is fine, go as far as you can and then stand and squeeze at the top
