Ready to strengthen your legs, thighs, and glutes? Our beginner-friendly 42-day challenge will guide you through wall sits, lunges, squats, and leg swings, with each exercise designed to build muscle and endurance. We’ll gradually increase the intensity, so listen to your body and do your best!


Jean-Luc and Nick will be along for the ride as they complete the challenge with you!


Exercise Descriptions & Tips:


  1. Wall Sits: Lean against a wall and slide down into a sitting position with knees at a 90-degree angle. Hold the position. Tip: Keep your back flat against the wall and your core engaged.


  2. Lunges: Step one foot forward and lower your hips until both knees are bent at about a 90-degree angle. Push back to the starting position and repeat with the other leg. Tip: Keep your front knee over your ankle and your chest up.


  3. Squats: Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, bend your knees, and lower your hips as if sitting in a chair, then rise back up. Tip: Keep your weight in your heels and your back straight.


  4. Leg Swings: Stand on one leg and swing the other leg forward and backward in a controlled manner. Tip: Use a wall or chair for balance if needed.
