Do you ever find yourself mesmerized over someone else’s legs? Legs are the one thing that really stand out to me. If someone has nice toned legs, I immediately take notice, and it always urges me to focus more on leg workouts when I hit the gym. If you’re in the same boat, you’re going to love the tutorials I’ve rounded up for you today.
One of my favourite things about leg workouts is that when you’re working your legs, your butt usually gets a killer workout too. It’s not the same as doing workouts that specifically target your booty, but most leg workouts naturally include your entire lower body.
These 10 leg exercises will tone, sculpt and strengthen your legs, while burning calories and boosting your metabolism. You get a little bit of cardio, some strength training, and each of these workouts will make you feel the burn! From a 5-minute routine done on your tip toes to an advanced leg workout that’s not for the faint of heart, these exercises will take your leg workouts to the next level.
