35 MINUTE LOWER BODY STRENGTH: MEDIUM WEIGHTS + BAND + BALL
LOWER BODY WORKOUTS
•
36m
This lower body strength class combines a resistance band, pilates ball, and medium weights to build strength while keeping you connected to your body.
We'll begin with seated 90/90 hip mobility, moving through internal and external rotation before coming into a glute bridge activation sequence with the ball between the inner thighs and weights across the pelvis. Expect glute bridges, pulses, calf raises, and controlled inner thigh squeezes.
From there, we'll move into standing sets and reps training, starting with dual weighted sumo squats for 3 rounds of 15 reps, finishing each round with pulses.
We then shift into single leg work, beginning with B stance RDLs with the ball between the thighs to encourage pelvic support, inner thigh connection, and deep core engagement.
Next, we'll move into deep kickstand squats with the weights racked at the shoulders, before finishing with an unweighted banded side lying clam series.
You'll work through each side before repeating on the other, targeting the glute maximus and medius, inner thighs, hamstrings, quads, and pelvic stability through controlled, purposeful movement.
