5 Exercises To Tone Your Legs Fast



If your goal is to tone your legs and tush but going to the gym just isn’t convenient for you, don’t worry! Here are the 5 best exercises to shape and tone your legs in the privacy of your home without any expensive equipment or machines. You can even do this workout while watching your favorite show.

Here are the 5 exercises that will shape your lower body fast!

Body-weight Squats:



The squat is the king of lower body exercises. To do one properly make sure you stand with your feet around shoulder distance apart. For balance you can extend both arms out in front of your body. Slowly bend your knees while sitting back down as if you were starting to sit in a chair. Be sure to keep your back straight and never let your knees go beyond your toes to prevent injury.


Lunges:


Step straight ahead with your left leg and slowly lower yourself down while keeping your body moving in a straight line. Leave your down at your sides or place your hands on your hip bones to stay balanced. Just as with the squats be sure that your knees doesn’t go past your toes. Then alternate back and forth between the right and left leg.


Hip Extension:



Lower yourself down to the floor and while on your hands and knees, bring your left leg up into the air while it is bent, until the knee is lined up with your back. From this point continue to raise your leg higher so that your feel a squeeze in your butt. Then return your leg back down to the ground and repeat with the opposite leg, alternating between both sides.


Bridging:


While on the ground with your knees bent. Place your arms by your sides and slowly lift your tush and low back up into the air until you feel a squeeze in your flutes. Once you reach the top pause for a second and then lower yourself down to the ground. Repeat 10 to 15 times more.


Calf- Raise:



With your legs less than shoulder width apart. Bring yourself up on to your toes and contract your calves. You can give yourself a better range of motion if you do this on the stairs or perhaps an aerobic step. Slowly bring yourself down and let yourself sink down into your heels, then repeat again.

Try to do 10 to 15 of these exercises every 38 hours for amazingly toned legs!
