Lower Body Total Burnout - Glutes and Legs!

Warning...this workout is intense!  It leaves your glutes and hamstrings feeling like jello!  

Meg and I train teens and adults, and no matter what age the client happens to be....this series always gets the most complaints while we are actually doing it, but after the pain from the muscle soreness subsides, they always say it's one of their favorites!  Why?  Because they feel like it creates major change!  Even though it is strictly body weight, it will have your gluteus maximus muscles screaming!  It is definitely a mind over matter series, which means you have to tell yourself not to stop and stick to it.  

If you are looking for a SERIOUS lower body workout, pair this with the Ultimate HIIT and Strength workout.  I start with the Ultimate HIIT and Strength and finish with this...it is NOT for beginners!  You will definitely be feeling it for days after your workout! 

Enjoy the burn...that is your body changing!
