The exercises below are a great way to introduce weightlifting into your weekly workouts. They are simple to do and use a combination of free weights and equipment found in every gym. The goal here is to burn out your legs to the point of fatigue. Challenge yourself using heavy weights but maintain good form and always engage your abdominal muscles. Remember to stay hydrated.
I added cardio between each set to make this a one-stop shop workout. I typically use the elliptical machine for cardio but the stairs or bike will work just as well. Although this is labeled as a lower-body workout, your whole body should feel well-cooked when finished!
