▫️Focus: tone muscle and add strength to glutes and lower body! ▫️Recover from our workouts: this program is designed for toning muscle. For best results, let your body recover and trust the process.

This program has 4 days of lower body which leaves you with 3 days of rest. Those 3 days can be used to train upper body/core and/or use them for active rest days, so go on a walk, stretch or do some yoga! You can choose which days you can do each routine and adjust to fit your schedule!

You will make some serious changes to your body by staying consistent throughout the full 5 weeks. Stick to the plan! Push yourself and give it all you’ve got! You are always stronger than you think! Always challenge yourself enough but maintain good form. If you feel like you could do more, perform more reps or sets. You could also add an “Activation” circuit before you start your exercise. Remember to give your body enough food, protein, and rest for building blocks.

All the workouts can be done at home with just resistance bands. If you find resistance bands too challenging, don’t worry you can start with body weight and build yourself up to using resistance.

Best for beginners but all skill levels can do these workouts!

Bands can be a useful way to increase the amount of tension at certain points of an exercise to add additional challenge to the movement. They are a great way to feel that burn and go for those higher reps without the risk of injury. They are also an easy way to increase tension for exercises beyond just your body weight. As long as you target the right muscles through this program and the reps are high, you will see improvements in muscle toning.
