Body Beast: Build Legs

Without a doubt, this is one of the hardest Beachbody workout routines I have ever done.  The pace is really fast and you don't have much rest in between sets.  Unlike P90X Legs & Back where you have back routines to allow your legs to recover, Body Beast - Build Legs is continuous pounding of the legs with lots of squats and lunges.  I can feel the leg fatigue big time after doing this routine.  So please go easy on yourself the first time around and keep your ego in check.  You do want to be able to walk without crutches the next day, don't you?

Total Time: 37 minutes

Equipment Needed: Dumbells, EZ curl bar, & chair.  I have a weight vest that I use.  It helps me stay more balanced, but it's definately optional. 

Workout :

Round 1 (Single set)

1. Sumo Squats (15 reps)
2. Sumo Squats (12 reps)
