Good leg strength is the key to a lot of our daily problems, the legs support our body weight and help with the fight against gravity, the legs also contain the largest muscles in the human body the biggest of which is the glutes, if you want to protect your back, build a good bum, if you want to look after your knees, build the butt and work the quads, it all starts down here so this area should always be a priority to get and keep strong.
This workout is designed to hit all the leg muscles and leave you with a lovely little burn.
Warm & Stretch suitably before you start.
