- 8 Best Exercises For Stronger Legs
Are you looking for some variety with your leg training? Here are the 8 best exercises for stronger legs at any age.
If you're looking to take your leg training to the next level then you’ll love these 8 lower body exercises I’ll share in this video!
These moves take those fundamental movements and add a little twist to the basics to help you progress through not just adding loads but also different types of tension, different loading placements, different bases of support and even different ranges of motion.
There are so many ways to vary moves to match our specific needs and goals. With these tweaks you can even impact how much you are using specific muscles involved.
And it’s key we find different ways to progress, especially the longer we’ve been training!
While we are never above the basics, and should always return to them, we can make little tweaks to movements to keep our training fresh and interesting while creating progression in new and different ways.
Especially the longer we’ve been training, the more we have to explore different options to create that progression and drive muscle growth.
These movement variations can also be fun as we get older to not just beat our bodies up by trying to force heavier loads or even to help us when we’ve hit a stickpoint with the weights we can move during a specific movement.
That’s why I wanted to share 8 amazing lower body exercises that create progression in different ways!

0:00 Introduction
1:07 Cable Step Up
1:52 Staggered Stance Squat
2:58 Double Banded Hip Thrusters
3:44 Deficit Split Squat
4:40 Landmine Band Deadlift

That bench quad extension is pure genius!
It's a little change that really makes a difference!
@@redefiningstrengthOC The devil is in the details... And this is a hell of an exercise, I always wondered why doing leg extensions sitting and not with straight back as here, it has more carryover to athletic moves, over head squats etc, and also takes away my pain in the quad tendons. 💖
Great video!You are an inspiration! One of the biggest things that has helped me build muscle has been a custom meal plan from Next Level Diet. I use it every week and I love it!
Awesome! Thank you Cori!
Great ideas! Thank you for these.
Very interesting as always, thanks a lot for sharing!
This video is a gem, specially when working out at home where resources are limited.
Added to my playlist.
I'd say one of your best videos so far. Congrats and thanks a lot.
Thank you for another great workout video Cori!
I really like the different exercises that were demonstrated. And I've always been impressed by the regressions for each exercise that you show. It helps people to be able to start from where they are at and progress from there. Great video. And it looks like one of your adorable doggies was playing hide and seek in a box.
I enjoy variety - introducing different moves into my workout often reveals a weakness or something I need to work on. Thanks for sharing these!
Thank you very much Cori🙂
Excellent information as always. You are one of the few (2) people I follow. Thank you
Always learn something here. Thanks .
Excellent suggestions Cori 👍
Your legs ability is amazing! It's almost the first thing I noticed since I've been following your follow-along training videos year ago! Any intention of making more of these XD
Thank you!
Love the variations to switch up movements and use of free weights- as many of us kept our home gyms post Covid and home is our workout space 🙂
GREAT VIDEO!
Perfect video I needed to see today since its Leg day . TYIA😄
This is super helpful, thank you. I love you and the dogs
So awesome to find your video this morning! I'm for sure adding some of these to tomorrow's workout, especially the double banded hip thrust. All very excellent exercises to change up my routine. Much appreciated :)
Enjoy! Can't wait for you to feel the difference using the double bands!
EXCELLEND EXERCISES!
Nice one
Love these movements! Unilateral/single leg balance is something working on personally rn...
thanks really appreciate it ..ma'am 😊
Thanks for the impressive suggestions! My focus is developing leg strength for cycling. I’ve been weaning off my gym in favour of working out at home, and these exercises are doable for anyone with a few props and a floor. (The yoga block is a great suggestion!) 👍🏾🙏🏾
You'll definitely have to include that Airborne Lunge option! Enjoy!
I need a print off with these so I can easily implement them with your tidbits. Thanks a bunches!
Glad they help!
Perfect timing! I am currently writing out my leg days for the week. I absolutely love your videos Cori!
Aw yay! Perfect timing!
You are great.
Greetings from Spain.
I love those variations ! I train at home, can try some of them with tweaks (like the step up with cable ; I can lock a resistance band+handle at my indoor stair pillar😉). Cori, could you please tell us how much is the resistance of the band you use for the good mornings ? Thanks ! !
Ooh i felt that at 4:51 and been there. Good tip for deadlifts
Awesome
Cory you are looking so good and always so helpful
Aw shucks well thanks!
Thanks for all the suggestions! I just tried the airborne lunge and felt pain in my hipflexor. Any suggestions on how to fix that? P.S. Absolutely love your channel!!
i always love your exercises and thorough explanations. I know i'm cheating on the lean back exercise and not using my weak quads. I tried it as a single leg option. Do you have a single leg lean back video on your channel?
Great 👍 contains
Merci or toda. I need to find a set of heavy (60lb+)resistance bands with handles... (And since Amazon doesn't need my money, I prefer to buy them at a low price elsewhere...)
Excellent Episode And Very Well Thought Out - And Who Loves A Cardboard Box - Yahooo000
Be Well,
Cheers
Thanks for your videos, they are very helpful. if possible can you talk about super sets
I actually talk about supersets vs even compound sets in a podcast I did recently - th-cam.com/video/W0xZvdlDsUs/w-d-xo.html
Thanks
Cori, I didn't know you had a Podcast channel; new follower over there
I'm gonna try! My knee's suck!
Hello ! Toppissime auriez vous des exercices avec bandes élastiques
That single leg deadlift is with 20lbs right? My eyes popped out of my head when I thought it was 20kg. I can only do 6kg but I'm trying to progress without sacrificing form so I'll be trying the supported version.
Thanks. I got a..leg up on the competition😁
🤣
I just learned about uterine prolapse from my older friend. It looks like it's a common condition after menopause. One of the things to prevent it is not to lift heavy. I am very worried about working out with dumbbells now. Could you recommend safe exercises for preventing organ lowering?
If you have uterine prolapse you need to do physio and address it. You need to learn to breath correctly and what you lift and how you lift may change, especially as you rebuild. But I don't agree with just saying don't lift heavy out of fear of it because A. Lifting heavy means so many different things. And B. It is about breathing and creating the correct pressure and tension. So if you aren't sure if you are bracing and breathing correctly while lifting, definitely see someone. But to stop lifting heavy will put you at risk for injury in every day life. What if you lift something heavy and don't know how to breathe when moving stuff around your home!? You could still end up with injury. Honestly I've found lifting heavy while truly knowing how to activate muscles correctly is key. Use those gym sessions as a time to really train amazing movement patterns and core control!
@@redefiningstrengthOC Thanks so much for reassurance! I don't have any prolapse and was worried I may develop it with heavy weights. Would you talk about the breathing during lifting? What about stomach vacuums, where you hold the breath. Is it healthy for the organs?
Where would I look to find the type of bands you are using in this video?
So these are the bands also used to assist with pull ups. Here's a link to the ones I got just off of Amazon! - www.amazon.com/dp/B00KLMU03O?linkCode=ssc&tag=onamzredefi00-20&creativeASIN=B00KLMU03O&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.UFGG7KKWBXKP&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_d_asin
Hello.I want strong legs, and to slim them down. I’ve seen these other videos that mention not doing squats or lunges for someone that is a certain body type . I have been strength training and have not seen results on my legs slimming down.
For any type of body recomp we want to achieve, it's not just our workouts but also our diet that makes a difference. If you are looking for any sort of fat loss, tracking your macros can be helpful! Here are some tips to help you even get started - redefiningstrength.com/fhp-s2e21-starting-to-count-macros-5-tips-for-beginners/
@@redefiningstrengthOC Thank you for your reply. New habit -tracking.
Nice shoes
But what about the inner thigh muscles? My inner thighs are one of my problem areas I so badly want to burn fat away from that area and tone those muscles what exercises target the inner thighs? I workout at home I have a barbell dumbbells and a kettlebell
Me too Girl!
I think that she has done a video aboyut that.See the previous videos!
Squats are great moves to target your adductors and quads so including the staggered stance squat is always a good option. I also really love this move to isolate the adductors and even improve core strength - th-cam.com/video/yZ4sSBOYZ2s/w-d-xo.html
@@redefiningstrengthOC oh cool I'll check it out, my legs are weird because I'm developing quad muscles my biceps femoris are developing too but my inner thighs are jiggly and fat ☹️ I want to even out my legs and tone all my leg areas
Hip hinge. More please.
Could you repeat that please ?
Just kidding, thanks for these moves,im going to incorporate them into the other exercises that you've given.
Those leggings are everything 🤩
