Lower Body Workout
Hi Everyone!
This was my workout last night. This one is focused on the lower body.
I used two 20-lb dumbbells to increase the intensity of this workout. You can also choose to use body weight only, but adding weight will help you build strength and increase the burn of the workout.
To get the best results in both your fitness level and aesthetics you want to switch up your workout frequently and continually challenge your body. Don't be afraid to breath heavy and break a sweat. That's a sign that you are doing it right!
As you can see in the video, I was dripping sweat by the end of the workout.
I hope you enjoy this one!
Melissa
