No equipment training for lower body


Recommended Posts

Squats (both legs + single leg) - as they are a body weight exercise. I often use my fiance when she is home and hold her on my shoulders and squat. Obviously with her consent.

Box Jumps - Can be used if you are able to jump onto something. MUST be something that is stable and that you can land on properly.

Dynamic Lunges - Lunges whilst moving if you have the space

Plyometric Lunges - Like a regular lunge but when you come up you explode up and switch. But need space because you could fall over.

Romanian Deadlifts - google what it looks like, but it is a hip dominant exercise. Great for when you have done the shopping!

Deadlifts - Same google it if you are unsure of what they look like. But now a knee dominant exercise, also great if you have a lot of shopping done.

Endurance often is included in certain exercises. But you can actually do the exercises as mentioned above but you can do a lower weight at a higher repetition range. Even regular body weight exercises you can still do more reps past what you can do comfortably.

Those are some great exercises. You could also work up to pistol squats then add weight via a weight shirt or heavy backpack:
