Lower body — GLUTES/HAMSTRINGS
*Remember to always start with a warm up before you begin (5-10 mins) & finish with a cool down and stretch after your strength session.
*It is the LAST WEEK of this strength build — so I highly encourage you to INCREASE your weight this week, as always, stick to your own bodyweight if you are a beginner exerciser or don’t feel quite comfortable with the movements just yet!
