Killer Leg Workout

Now that I have (mostly) uninterrupted access to the gym at work, I am really taking advantage of having an hour to myself to workout (and shower since we’re renovating our bathrooms and haven’t had a shower for a few weeks now). I decided that I wanted to spice up my routine and put together what I thought was a simple little leg workout to get my heart rate up, some sweat going and a good burn. What I ended up with were legs that I could barely walk on over the following two days. Granted, I haven’t done a dedicated leg workout in a very long time but this was not what I was expecting. It hurt so good! So I thought I’d share for anyone who wants to try it out!

I used two 15lb dumbbells for everything that’s noted as “weighted” except the walking lunges in which I used two 12lbs dumbbells. I couldn’t believe how tired my body was after and even with a good stretch, I was still really sore! I will definitely be doing this one again.

Disclaimer: I am not a personal trainer or professional fitness diva of any kind. This is a workout that I created for my own needs. No one should ever start or attempt a training program without first consulting their doctor or other health professional. You are more than welcome to do this workout but acknowledge that you are doing so at your own risk.
