With the right plan and the right discipline, you can get seriously shredded in just 28 days.
Read articleIt’s time to raise your game in the legs department. The best place to start? This intense, four-move circuit that’ll pound your lower body (and even your core) into rock-solid, defined muscle.
For this workout, you’ll do back-to-back-to-back rounds of dumbbell overhead lunges, Bulgarian split squats, and stepups. From there, a set of abs-burning situps will ignite new muscular development in your quads, glutes, hamstrings, and calves. And by the end of this circuit, you’re probably going to need to take a few minutes off your feet.
You’ll do this workout as a circuit, meaning you’ll complete each exercise consecutively without rest. Once you’ve finished all exercises, rest for 30 to 60 seconds. Repeat the entire circuit for 4 to 6 rounds.
Depending upon your ability, you may shorten or lengthen the rest period. You may also complete more or fewer rounds.
