LEG DAY WORKOUT with Dumbbells – Strong Legs | Circuit Series Day 1

So many of our favourite exercises in today’s leg workout! We will strengthen the quads, hamstrings and glutes as we perform a wide variety of lower body exercises using dumbbells and bodyweight as resistance in circuit format but as always the bodyweight portion isn’t easier!

For this leg day, you will need a pair of dumbbells, a chair for Bulgarian lunges and single leg RDLs, a yoga block/thick book and your mat!

The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 12.5kg each! Some of the exercises involve x2 dumbbells, 1 or bodyweight but of course you can use 2 where I maybe use 1 depending on the weight you are using!

The timer will be on for 50 seconds of work, 10 seconds rest before moving to the next exercise within the circuit!

We will perform each circuit x2, straight after one another. Once we complete the circuits for 2 rounds, we then have just over 1 minute rest before beginning next circuit!

I really found this a challenge. And I am sure you will too when giving it your best on each rep!

I’m excited for you to smash this… what a way to kick of the Circuit Series week!!
