Although there’s hundreds of lower body exercises out there, a good leg workout doesn’t need to be complicated. In fact, when it comes to increasing strength, the simpler, the better, just like this four-move workout. Not only will you notice your legs become more defined and stronger over time, but it contains classic exercises that time and time again deliver results. Just grab a pair ofheavy dumbbellsor anOlympic barbelland someweight plates, if you’re at the gym.

This workout will take you around 30 to 45 minutes (depending on the weight you use). Work your way down the list of exercises, completing all the sets and reps for exercise one, before moving onto exercise two. Rest between 60 to 120 second after each exercise (if you need a little longer though, that’s absolutely fine, just listen to your body). Here’s your exercises:

Remember, do this workout for four to six weeks before changing so you can keep track of improvements in your strength. Don’t have heavier dumbbells? Add more reps. If you have access to a gym and you hit all your reps in the first two weeks, increase the weight. Once you’ve done that, here’s adumbbell-only leg workoutfor you to try, or give this20 minute lower body workouta go (dumbbells or kettlebell required).
