Exercise Routine To Do at Home – For Women!

We start with the home workout routine by focusing on three exercises that will target different leg muscles: the thighs (quadriceps), calves, abductors, glutes, and hips. With these exercises, you will be able to tone the entire lower body and, thus, eliminate accumulated fat and show off a stronger and slimmer body.

Squats for the quads

One of the best exercises you can do at home to strengthen your legs is squats. To perform this exercise you must follow these steps:

1. Stand up straight on the mat and keep your arms hanging next to your body.
2. Slightly separate your legs and support yourself well with the soles of your feet on the ground
3. Go slowly lowering your butt towards the ground by making force with your legs. If you lose stability, you can stretch your arms forward, at shoulder height.
4. Go down as far as you can and, when you have reached the limit, hold for 5 seconds and then go up little by little.

Repeat this exercise in 3 sets of 15 repetitions each to work your muscles well. Over time, you will be able to hold weight in your hands to make it more difficult for you to perform this exercise and, thus, work this area of ​​the body more.

Elevate feet for calves

We are now going to work on the area of ​​the twins to eliminate the accumulated fat and achieve better-defined muscles. To achieve this, all we have to do is perform a movement that you have surely done at some point: stand on your toes. You must follow these steps to do the exercise correctly:

1. Stand on the mat with your feet slightly apart
2. Now, raise your heels staying on your toes
3. Hold this position for 5 seconds and then return to the starting position

Repeat this movement until you complete 15 repetitions, and then continue until you reach 3 sets. Over time, you will be able to increase in repetitions and/or sessions so that your body continues to work at its best.

Lateral raise to strengthen the hips

In an exercise routine for women, you cannot miss the one that focuses on working and defining the hips since this part of the body is one where saturated fat tends to accumulate more in the female body. Therefore, an ideal exercise to work this area is the following:

1. Lie on your side on the mat supporting your head with the palm of your hand
2. Now, you must raise the leg that you have in the upper part as far as you can
3. When you reach the top, slowly lower your leg and, without resting on it, raise your leg again to strengthen your hip muscles.

You will have to repeat this movement 15 times and, later, we will change legs to work the other area. This exercise ends when you manage to perform 3 sets of 15 repetitions with each leg and, over time, you will be able to put weights on your legs and/or increase the series to put your muscles to work to the maximum.

Raise the leg for the adductors and glutes

The adductors are the muscles on the inner side of the thigh that often tend to lose tone and appear flaccid. For this reason, it is essential that we carry out an exercise specially designed for this area but that, in addition, will also serve to tone the buttocks. You will need to do the following:

1. Get on your knees on the mat, in the doggy position, trying to keep your back straight at all times and with your hands supported
2. In this position, you must raise one of the legs creating an angle of 90 degrees with respect to your body
3. Then, you must slowly lower your leg to, without reaching support, raise it again

With this exercise, you will put both the adductors and the glutes into operation and, therefore, it will be ideal for sculpting your figure. Do 3 sets of 15 with each leg and, little by little, you will notice results.

We continue with this routine of exercises to do at home for women attacking, now, the muscles that we have in the upper part of the body, that is, the arms, the shoulders and the back. There are different exercises that you can carry out but below we are going to propose these with which you will be able to strengthen all the muscles in this area; that yes: the best thing is that you have some weights or dumbbells to be able to better develop the muscular work.
