TRX Leg and Butt Sculpting Workout

As the weather starts to get warmer here in North America, we tend to get out more and thus pick up the intensity of our workouts to get ready for the summer. Today’s workout is leg and butt sculpting. This is an intermediate level suspension training from Dan Long as we will be using single leg which really targets your core while working your butt and leg.

Focus on form with these exercises and when you get the hang of it, give it your all for great results. Perform each exercise for 40 seconds splitting the time to 20 seconds for each leg. Do 3 to 4 rounds with a minute rest in between. Your lower body will love it.
