Lower Body HIIT Workout

I am trying to provide more home workouts during this tough time we are going through, where the gyms and non-essential stores are closing, so we can’t get resistance bands or dumbbells. It is great to know that you don’t need them to exercise to help you lose fat or build muscle.

In this case, I am still using dumbbells because I can, but I will probably provide another dumbbell workout and then I will start posting body weight workouts to help you keep or get your body back in shape, because everyone can!

Muscles Worked

• Legs

Equipment Required

• Dumbbells
• Mat/Towel

The HIIT Workout

Duration: 16 minutes

Sets: 4 Sets of 4 minutes each

Rest: 30 seconds per rep/set

DB Front Squats – 30 Seconds

DB RDL – 30 Seconds

DB Reverse Lunges – 30 Seconds

DB Calf Raises – 30 Seconds

Conclusion

Make sure that you do even reps of the single leg exercise (reverse lunges), even if you happen to run a bit over time. It is important to focus on form and control of the weight, because you still need to ensure that you’re building strength and muscle in your legs.

Otherwise, I will always encourage to finish off with core because I have a strong belief that is where most of your strength is coming from, so check these workouts below:
