If you are short on time and need a quick 20-minute strength workout - this one delivers! Using some of my favourite lower body exercises we will strengthen your legs.
You will also work your core with the single-sided exercises we are performing. This is called unilateral training and it really fires up the core muscles while also replicating real-life movements.
Tools: 1 heavy (and I mean heavy) dumbbell, a yoga block (or similar)
3 x 45sec
Goblet squat
1-legged deadlift
Shrimp squat
