Complex lower body exercises will tighten your stomach, buttocks and hips.
Each exercise will exercise the muscles perfectly. Don’t forget to do a joint warm-up and 5-10 minutes of cardio (brisk walking, running, or jumping rope) before your workout.
How to make your workout as effective as possible?
Do three to four exercises per muscle group, then they will get enough load and grow from workout to workout.
Choose an exercise for each muscle group and do circuit training with minimal rest. In this case, aerobic exercise will add to the power load, and training will give a fat burning effect.
Circuit training is a huge time saver. 20-30 minutes with dumbbells will replace the classic one-hour workout in the gym.
