Low Impact Workout for Legs & Butt

EQUIPMENT NEEDED

  • Slider – you can use a dish towel if you have hardwood floors.

This low impact workout is a continuous 7-min flow of slider and bodyweight exercises. You’ll complete it on the left, rest for 60 seconds, then complete the same sequence on the right (15 mins total). Follow along with the video as I guide you through the exercises and variations.

As with all workouts, you want to make sure you’re properly warmed up before, and always listen to your body, modifying or stopping as needed. I have two guided warm ups:

This is a low impact workout—no jumping, and suitable for all levels. To modify, just take breaks instead of doing the whole 7-minute sequence continuously.
