Hey everyone, welcome back! Summer is here and what better way to kick it off than with an awesome lower body strength circuit to work your glutes, thighs, hips and more, and burn a ton of calories while you’re at it!


If you guys haven’t done one of these circuit workouts before, you’re in for a real treat. This workout is just 24 total minutes of exercise. These exercises were all chosen with beginners in mind, so they are low impact, and easy on the joints. But they’ll challenge you and help you build your strength at the same time.


Complete each movement at a speed that’s comfortable for you, in which you complete the exercise with the best form possible. Keep moving! Each round of this workout is only 6 minutes…you can do anything for 6 minutes if you put your mind to it. So keep it moving, and you can rest in between rounds. During your rest feel free to sit down if needed, catch your breath, and grab a sip of water (but not too much, as this can upset your tummy during your workout).


The Workout

There are two circuits below. Repeat each circuit as many times as possible within 6 minutes. Rest 30-90 seconds, then move on to the next circuit. Each circuit is to be completed two times, for a total of 4 total rounds at six minutes, for 24 total minutes of exercise.


Circuit 1

Complete 10 reps of each exercise. Repeat Circuit 1 as many times as you can for 6 mins.


Rest 30-90 seconds.


Circuit 2

Complete 10 reps of each exercise. Repeat Circuit 2 as many times as you can for 6 mins.


Rest 30-90 seconds.

Repeat entire workout 1 more time!


Let me know how it goes in the comments. Good luck!
