The 7-Minute High-Intensity Workout for Stronger Legs

Shake up your usual lower-body workout with a quick but high-intensity routine. Because let's be real: Leg day is brutal, so you might as well get it done as fast as humanly possible. You'll thank us later.

This workout will strengthen your calves, inner and outer thighs, hamstrings, and glutes, which is essential for preventing ankle, knee, and hip injuries. You'll push yourself as hard as possible for 30 seconds then take a 10-second recovery. Make sure you do a quick warm-up before and a cool-down after this routine. It's going to be hard, but it's going to be fun. And trainers Pace and Go show you how much fun it is to do with a friend. All you need is an exercise mat to get started.

To recap: Do a quick warm-up before and a cool-down after this workout. Perform each exercise for 30 seconds with 10 seconds of rest.
