This 30 minute lower body leg workout is focusing on the glutes and hamstrings and quads! This type of training is important if you are wanting to activate your glutes in order to really be able to train them. The glutes are a tricky one to work if you are not able to connect your mind to the muscle during the workout so relax, aim for heel to ceiling in donkey kicks, keep thigh tight in leg lifts and really squeeze each glute you are using to lift!
The glute workout and hamstring workout today requires a mat, a stable chair and ankle weights to make this an ankle weight workout (though not essential). The main workout consists of slow and controlled movements targeting the glutes at all angles, the hips, hamstrings and core to really help add strength, mobility and shape to the lower body. Take the movements slowly, rising and lowering with control throughout.
Following this, we will finish with of course the plank challenge of 2 minutes!
The glute and hamstring exercises are performed for 50 seconds of work and 10 seconds rest throughout the entire workouts.
We complete 1 set of the following so no repeat of set.

I hope you really take it slow, try to keep tension in thigh, foot flexed in most movements and use the glute to lift! Lower with control and lift with control! I will be stopping to ensure my form is good so please don’t stop if I do!
