If you’re ready to fire up your lower body and build strength, stability, and power, this leg day routine is for you. These movements target your quads, hamstrings, glutes, and core—no fancy equipment required, just consistency and effort. Let’s get into it!


The Workout


1. Bulgarian Split Squats

A powerful unilateral move that challenges balance and strength. This exercise isolates each leg to improve symmetry and build serious quad and glute strength.

2. Squat to Deadlift

A dynamic combo that hits both the front and back of your legs. You’ll squat to engage your quads, then hinge into a deadlift to activate your hamstrings and glutes.

3. Split Squats

A classic move that keeps the tension on your quads and glutes. These help improve stability and build endurance through your lower body.

4. Lunges

Lunges work every major muscle in the lower body while training balance and coordination. You'll feel this one working from your hips to your calves.

5. Glute Bridge

A glute-focused movement that builds strength in the posterior chain. Great for creating power and improving hip mobility.

6. Donkey Kicks – Bent Leg & Straight Leg

These variations help shape and strengthen the glutes from multiple angles. Bent leg targets the upper glutes, while straight leg helps lengthen and engage the entire posterior.
