  • Опубликовано: 23 авг 2024
  • 20 min knee friendly LEG WORKOUT targeting the areas surrounding the knee: hamstrings, glutes, quads and calves.
    This 20 minute leg workout has no squats or lunges so will be great for many who for different reasons, do not perform these movements however it is still your responsibility to listen to your body. Only lower/lift/hold etc to where you can and not put stress on knees.
    You will need your mat, a towel/ball to place between knees, a wall and a pair of dumbbells for the Romanian Deadlifts.
    The timer will be on for 50 seconds of work, followed immediately by either holds or pulses of the same movement!!
    Towards the end, the wall sits are for 1 minute duration whilst the Romanian deadlifts are for 50 seconds each with 10 seconds rest in between.
    - LYING GLUTE SQUEEZE
    - PULSE!

    - STAGGERED RDL (switch)
    - WALL SIT (1 min)
    - WALK SIT ON TOES (1 min)
    There will be tips on the screen for some exercises. This is a slower paced workout:
    * Keep the leg straight during the leg lifts, tension in the quads and really squeeze glutes at top. Flex the foot as apposed to point.
    * During the donkey locks, aim for HEEL to ceiling, even in the pulses!!!
    * During the side lying leg lift, try to keep leg straight at rising perpendicular to the torso.
    * Take the RDLs slow... aim to feel that stretch in the hamstrings and remember not to aim for floor by letting shoulder blades separate... keep those squeezed together!
    * The wall sit, as I do in this workout, is performed not as far down as typical wall sit to show that you don’t need to go all the way down if this is uncomfortable. Of course lower completely to 90° if you can and no stress on knees!
    I hope you enjoy this workout and really focus on the isolating movements to gain the most out of each rep!

    Hello everyone! I just want to apologise as I’ve been meaning to do this workout for a while and I know many have requested a workout that involves no lunges and squats so I am so happy to finally do this! The first 15 minutes is basically no break but please don’t rush to get into position! During these 15 minutes every exercise is followed immediately by a pulse or hold of that exercise (same leg if it is single leg work!). The wall sits are 1 minute each with a break second rest before going to toes! I only lower slightly down on wall sit as apposed to 90° at knee to show you can still work the quads without coming all way down if strain on knees. I hope you all enjoy this low impact short workout! 💓

    You certainly don't have to apologize
    There are enough people who like to jump and don't like to abs, unlike me
    I like to jump, but my knees are gone, that's my problem and I have to stop my ambition.
    But it was so nice, yesterday I saw your jumping video, turn off my laptop and today I turn on my laptop and you have already posted a new video
    I was touched.
    My speeches what an advent calendar
    I wish I was as creative with my hymns of praise for you as you do with your exercises. I not only find your exercises interesting but also the constantly new intervals, which is certainly a lot of work.
    Whenever I hear people whining: You can't really do sport at home or when I see exercise suggestions, then I think YOU ALL DEFINITELY HAVE THE WRONG CHANNEL THERE IS ONLY ONE YOU TOUBE FITNESS TRAINER,
    who is creative, inspiring and there for us more than she has to.

    This is such a timely workout for me!

Thank you for thinking of making a knee-friendly workout! Would love to see another one 😊

    This is my 3rd workout from you and I have watched several including some well known folks in this field and I enjoy your video so much more! I fell off the workout train a while ago and trying to get back into it. I enjoy the small light pep talk in the beginning explaining some things. What I like most is that I don't feel rushed through it all and the small preview of the next exercise is so helpful. In this 20 minutes I feel so accomplished and thoroughly worked! I look forward to my workout tomorrow with whatever video I choose. Great format of these videos.
