Fitness with Jess

50-min LIVE HIIT workout. 10x10

Single leg work!!

Holy smokes, your body reacts DIFFERENTLY when you use one limb compared to both. When you use both at the same time same time, you actually fall into something called the “bilateral deficit”, which means neither limb has to work as hard as it would alone. One at a time, the limbs have to really rely on their own strength, along with utilizing stabilizers to a greater extent.

These five moves provides good place to start for the lower body. You will have to perform each move twice; once per leg.

1️⃣deficit reverse lunges
2️⃣Bulgarian split squats (keep torso erect for quad maximization)
3️⃣single leg RDL
4️⃣figure 4 squat
