Thought I’d switch up the workout scenery a little today and shoot something in my apartment. Rearranging furniture and lamenting over the stains on my white couch (don’t buy a white couch people, just don’t do it) made me miss the good ol’ days of August. Having my own YouTube studio (aka my parents’ sunroom) was such a luxury. Living in a house with more than two rooms was a luxury. I’m not ready to leave the city just yet (ever?), but I’m starting to understand why people live in the suburbs. Storage space. Outdoor space. Personal space. SPACE.
But I digress. I have a quick leg day finisher that’s the perfect way to end a lower body workout with a big burn. Enjoy!
Leg Day Finisher – 5-Minute Lower Body Burnout
There are three bodyweight exercises in this workout. You do each for 20 seconds and preform them back to back. So that’s 60 seconds of work. Do them twice on the left leg, resting for 20 seconds in between sets. Rest for 40 seconds after completing the left leg and then do the same thing on the right.
Make sure to warm up beforehand if you’re not using this as a finisher to another workout. I have a warm up on the blog or you can do your own. Listen to your body and modify as needed, stopping altogether if something doesn’t feel right. A proper cool-down is important, too! Take some time to stretch after this workout.
