4 Amazingly Easy Leg Workouts At Home

#2 Lunges

Lunges are one of the most effective lower body workouts. Apart from strengthening the legs it also helps in shaping your buttocks.

Instructions

Step 1: Keep your head up, your shoulders back, your back straight, and your chin parallel to the floor.

Step 2: Step forward with one leg, lowering your hips until both knees are bent at about a 90-degree angle. Keep your hands relaxed on the side of your body.

Step 3: Your front knee is directly above your ankle, not pushed out too far, and make sure your other knee doesn't touch the floor.

Step 4: Keep the weight in your heels as you push back up to the starting position.

Important Tip: Do two sets of 15-20 reps on each leg. Reverse lunges is another useful variation and in this, instead of stepping forward you need to step backward. If you have dumbbells at home then keep it in both hands while performing this exercise.
