Alright guys! This week I have a challenge for all of you. Below is a progressive lower body circuit routine which can be done from the comfort of your own home. Keep in mind that this circuit is very challenging and that you should start with week 1 and build up to the 6^th week. By the end of week 6 you guys will notice a difference in your lower body endurance, strength, and an increase in lean muscle.

Develop a strong mind by overcoming the perception of pain. Do more work in less time to burn more fat, build a great looking lower body, and improve mental toughness. Do the workout 2x/week for 2 weeks and then 1x/week for 4 weeks. Do the exercises in the order listed.
