Quads and lower abs will be set on fire! A combination of bodyweight and dumbbells to target the entire lower body, specifically the quads and core, specifically the lower abs!
For this lower body workout you will need a pair of dumbbells, a wall for some wall sits and your mat. Optional is your yoga block to isolate the quads that but more during squats and also a chair for Bulgarian lunges however you can perform regular lunges if you prefer!
The timer will be on for the lower abs portions 50 seconds of work, 10 seconds rest. Once we reach the quads specific, the timer will be 40 seconds of work, 20 second rest.

A lot of time under tension here! During the leg portion, focus on pushing hips back when squats and the depth of your squat!
During wall sits, pay attention to your alignment.. thighs parallel to the floor and knees at 90°!
During the lower abs portion, bent knees or perform alternating leg if preferred!
Let’s smash this session and embrace the burn!
