Leg Killer (about 20 minutes)

Often times when I look at workouts in magazines I have a hard time liking them. However in the April 2010 issue of  Health Magazine, I found this workout! I absolutely love it. It's a leg KILLER!

Routine:

P90:  P90X workout. 25 Samari jumps. 20 around the world squat jumps. 20 run-jumps. 20 lunge jumps arms overhead. 50 low one leg jumps.
Do it twice.

Samari Jumps: Stand with feet facing side ways in a slow squat and touching the ground with your front hand, burst upwards and turn 180 degrees touch the ground and jump back to starting position. Do 25 squats total

Round the World Squats: Stand in wide squat position with toes pointed up. Jump straight up and then back down into wide squat, perform 20.

Run-Jumps: Jog in place 4 steps, after 4th step jump with both legs and tuck bringing your knees to hip height and hitting hands on top of knees (this is only 1 rep)

Lunge jumps with hands overhead: Perform a lunge jump, but this time keep your arms above your head.

Burn outs: Get in a low stance, with both legs bent. Bring one leg up off the ground and continue to bend over until you touch the ground. Then jump off that leg onto the other leg and touch the ground again. Do 25 each leg, 50 total.

Thank you Tony Horton.
