Here we go! It’s Leg day!

A combination of added resistance and some bodyweight to help build muscle and strength in the lower body!

The timer will be on for most of the workout 60 seconds per exercise!

Even within each superset, the timer will be 60 seconds per exercise! We will then have 30 seconds rest inbetween each superset!

Be sure to cool down after this workout as the slow drill of step ups might lead to stiffness, particularly in the glutes if you are really zoning in on the slowing down of that lowering portion of the step up!

This is a complete leg day that I absolutely loved both during and after!
