Leg Circuit

After my long run yesterday morning, getting motivation to go to the gym last night was nearly impossible. However, I found the motivation from within and got my butt to the gym so I could kill that fat and build that booty hehe :) Anyways, I will be the first to tell you that I am not always motivated to get to the gym. There are some days where the gym is the absolute last thing I want to do. Last night as I walked into the gym with nearly no energy, I quickly realized my lack of motivation is only going to set back my personal fitness goals. Therefore, since my lovely boyfriend is such a good accountability parter and got me to the gym, I decided to come up with a quick and efficient workout. I wanted to work my most problematic area, butt and thighs, in the least amount of time possible. This workout took about 40 minutes and my legs (esp calves) are feeling it today!

Circuit 1:
- single leg dead lifts X12 per leg
- plie squats X 20
- medicine ball hamstring curl X 20
Repeat X3

Circuit 2:
- walking lunges with leg lift X 20
- curtsy lunges X10 per side
- medicine ball squeeze between legs X 25
Repeat X3

Circuit 3:
- adductor machine X 20
- abductor machine X 20
Repeat X3

Circuit 4:
- leg press X 15
- calf press X 20
Repeat X4

* Can add 1 minute of cardio (jumping jacks, mountain climbers, burpees, line jumps, etc) to each circuit!
