The 10 BEST lower body exercises with dumbbells and bands -- NO LUNGES!

If lunges don't feel good for your knees, THIS is about to be your new favorite leg day workout! It's a lower body burnout, hitting every major muscle in the legs without ANY LUNGES.

This also makes a great pregnancy leg workout if you struggling with SPD/pelvic girdle pain and are trying to avoid lunges or single leg exercises. Note, I filmed this workout in my second trimester of pregnancy.
