Delirium Dive Leg Burn

Just because we’re at home, doing our part to flatten the spread of COVID-19, doesn’t mean we can’t make our legs burn like they would after a great day on the slopes, carving up Canada’s Best Snow. This at-home workout has been designed to work your legs and your core and can be performed anywhere. All you need is about 6 feet of space and a timer. For this, at home, leg workout, you can use your body weight, cans of bubbly, Coors Light, or whatever you may have in your cupboards or weights if you have them. Set your timer for one minute! For each exercise, repeat the move as many times as you can in the one-minute interval. When your timer rings, give yourself a 10-second break before moving to the next exercise. Try and work through each exercise two or four times- working to balance the muscles on each side of your body.
