Exercises for these large muscle groups likely have a positive effect on overall muscle growth – although valid long-term studies are still lacking, experts like fitness professor Dr. Stephan Geisler assume so. But let’s focus on practice – and how you can effectively design your leg training at home under the current circumstances. Are you ready?

Who is the Trainer in the Video?
Max Holthaus (24) from Berlin is a passionate fitness trainer. His heart truly beats for group fitness – but during COVID-19 times, group exercise is difficult to impossible. Therefore, he now supports home training in the video with his motivating speech. The participants should “get addicted to more” – this is the declared goal of the 24-year-old, who also works as a live personal trainer for “Vaha.”

Leg Training at Home – What to Expect in the Workout?
Effort and fun! It is a functional combination training of cardio exercises that burn many calories and boost fat burning, as well as strength training for defined legs. It will be challenging – but for personal coach Max, passion must not be neglected. “I share my energy 100 percent and give all the motivation to inspire for the workout. Because only then do participants fall in love with fitness,” says Max.
Who is the Workout Suitable For?
For most movements, there are several options, so the intensities of this home leg training can be easily self-regulated. This makes the workout perfect for any fitness level, whether beginner or advanced.

What is the Routine?
The workout consists of three sets for strength and cardio training, each with two rounds of three movements. The movements last about 60 seconds each. There is a one-minute break between sets. The entire workout takes about 25 minutes. Max has even created a special Spotify playlist for it. But of course, you can simply start your own favorite music. Enjoy!
