This post is for everyone out there who is like me and thinks working out your legs and actually making them thinner is maybe the hardest thing on the fucking planet.

Luckily, after about a million episodes of trial and error, I've been able to pluck out the exercises that ACTUALLY lift my ass and ACTUALLY made me feel like the workout was worth my time. 

There's gotta be around 9 jillion exercises that you see, or try, or hear about but there's only a few that you really need to lock down.

Then, all you need to do is do 3 rounds of them X amount of times, 4-5 times a week, and you'll start to see that line that separates your quad from your hamstring, and you'll reduce the signs of a mom butt. Sound good?

Let's get into it. 

1. STEP UPS

Do 20 reps on one leg, then move to the other side. If you want more of a challenge, hold a dumbbell in each hand. TIP: Make sure that you lift your foot that's on the bench UP just an inch or so before you go for another rep. If you keep weight on that foot all the time then you start to use your floor planted leg more and don't get as good of a booty pump.

2. CRAB WALK

Do a regular squat then stay low and step out to the right, squat again, step back to the middle, then step out to the left and squat. Yeah bish. Do 20 reps. Each squat is 1 rep. 

3. JUMPING LUNGES

Lunge so that both legs are in a 90-degree angle (make sure that your knees don't go over your toes). Jump up, switch your legs and land in another lunge. Do 20 reps.

4. 180 Jump Squat

Do a squat, then jump up and twist, landing in a squat facing the other way. From here I personally like to jump back up and twist the same way, but you can twist whatever way you want. I feel like going the same way is a little less of a dizzy disaster. 

TIP: Pick a thing to catch your eye in each direction, also helps from falling over.

Do 20 reps.
