Lower-body Workout
5 Rounds
20 Jump Lunges
10 Modified Burpees
20 Step-ups (10 per leg)
20-second Plank
20 Curtsy Lunges
20 Mountain Climbers
Rest 2 minutes and repeat.
For this at-home lower-body workout, the only equipment you need is a watch/clock and something to step-up on. You can use stairs, a sturdy chair, or a box. Try not to stop during the rounds, but if your form is slacking, stop for a few seconds. You want to have good form so you do not get hurt and also to perform the exercises properly! Don't forget, keep a water bottle close by-you will need it at the end of each round.
You will be surprised at how sweaty you can get using your own bodyweight to workout at home.
Jump & Curtsy Lunges: front knee does NOT go past toes; back knee lightly taps the ground
Modified Burpees: legs go all the way out; jump as high as you can
Step-ups: the stepping leg does the work; squeeze your glutes when you step-up; focus on balance
Plank: butt and legs in line with your spine
Mountain Climbers: legs go all the way out and down as well as all the way up (close to your elbows); keep your butt low
