Emily Skye encourages her millions of social networking followers to live active, authentic lives. This is exactly why Health partnered with Skye on our 30-Day Love Your Strength Challenge, a get-fit program that will help you become the perfect strongest, happiest self.
Skye’s lower body workout can be done as part of the Love Your Strength Challenge, or incorporate it to your own weight training routine. Either way, it can help raise your butt, tone your legs. And-most importantly-this workouts are designed to strengthen your posterior chain, arguably your body’s most important grouping of muscles. With this routine, you just need a pair of 10- to 20-pound dumbbells and a mat. It should take you 15 to 20 minutes to complete.
“Training your lower body and, particularly, your posterior chain is essential in almost any training program,” Skye says. “Having a powerful posterior chain will allow you to enjoy?an energetic and pain-free?lifestyle.?We all want a great set of legs and booty, and lower bodyweight?training is the right way to go about it, but it’s important too to note that lower bodyweight training benefits?exceed just booty gains.”
