Weighted & Banded Legs

For this workout you will need a dumbbell or two (or some other heavy object like a kettlebell, jug of laundry detergent, or bag of potatoes…), a miniband, and a chair. I will indicate on each exercise what equipment you will need to perform it.

The workout consists of 4 circuits with 3 exercises per circuit. We will be completing 1 whole circuit before moving onto the next. Aim for rep ranges between 8-12 (8-12 per leg if exercise is unilateral), and complete each circuit 2-4 times.

Ok, let’s get into it:

Circuit #1:

  • Kneeling squat thrusts – miniband & weight
  • Goblet squats – miniband & weight
  • Cha Cha’s – miniband

Circuit #2:

  • Curtsey lunge pulses – weight
  • Lateral lunges – weight
  • Single leg box squats – weight

Circuit #3:

  • Sumo squats – weight
  • Good mornings – weight
  • Stiff leg deadlifts – weight

Circuit #4:

  • Walking lunges – weight
  • Crab walks – miniband
  • Seated abductions – miniband
