6-Minute Butt and Leg Workout!

Today’s workout is one I created out of necessity, and I think it will be a huge benefit to you guys. This week has already been super busy for me (it’s only Tuesday!), and I know how crazy the rest of the week will be.

I like to have my workouts (and meals) planned in advance so I don’t have to waste too much time trying to make decisions during the week. My current workout routine is 3 full body strength training days a week, with a little extra focus on my legs, which have been a weak point lately due to injury.

Today was supposed to be one of my workout days, but because I was so busy with training clients it didn’t seem like I would have time to complete a full 45-60 minute workout when I got home from work.

However, I always try to practice what I preach, so I decided to create a quick and effective body weight leg workout that I could fit into my schedule, because my health is a top priority for me.

This routine can be completed in as little as 6 minutes anytime, anywhere, but trust me, this workout should not be taken lightly!

So here’s my circuit workout from today…

6-Minute Butt & Leg Workout

– Do each exercise for 40 seconds and rest 20 seconds before the next exercise.

– Go through the circuit once in 6 minutes or complete the circuit up to 3 times for a 20-minute workout.

– Rest one minute at the end of each circuit if you decide repeat more than once.

1A) Body weight Squat

1B) Glute Bridge

1C) Jumping (or walking) lunges

1D) Fire hydrants left side

1E) Fire hydrants right side  

1F) Side lunges

I ended up having a little extra time, so I completed the circuit 3 times for an amazing 20-minute workout. My legs felt like Jello afterwards!

It’s amazing what you can do in just a few minutes!. Give it a try and let me know how it went!
