this picture is from our Sex and the City Movie night last year! Look at all those pretty legs :)The best and easiest leg workout is the lunge. I use my 8lb weights while doing them and do around 25-30, 1-2 days a week. This also tones the booty : )
Then I do calf raises. The best thing about this exercise, is that you can do them anywhere! In the shower, on a stair, at your desk…. anywhere! I do these 1-2 days a week as well, in 3 sets of 15.
Also I am going to share my Mango Salsa Recipe! This is super healthy and very refreshing. I have made it with Tilapia and Chicken.
1 cups ripe seeded tomatoes, coarsely chopped
1 cups mango, diced
1/2 cup finely diced cilantro
1/2 cup red onion, finely diced
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt (use more if needed)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper or 1/2 jalapeno chopped
You can also add Cucumber to this! I am obsessed with cucumber haha : )
Next week I will be talking Abs. Hope everyone is having a fabulous wednesday! XOXO
These are the same exact leg exercises I do! haha..I'm actually going to be doing a short video on the exercises I do that I think you'll love!
Xo
Thanks for the exercises, they're quick and pretty simple to do. That recipe also sounds super yummy!
Awww, I love the picture! I actually had my Bachelorette party the night Sex & the City debuted (totally planned!) We had a sex & city themed weekend – it was so much fun! aah, memories 🙂
I love doing lunges.."FEEL THE BURN!!" I'm going to use that salsa when I go up to Virginia to see the boy..yummy.. and I LOVE LOVE LOVE cucumber too! It was my favorite food growing up!
What an adorable picture!!! I definately could use a girls night.
Cute picture!! Ahhh, can't wait for the second SATC to come out!
Great tips! I do the same. i don't like to do legs because I'm scared to get too bulky…but my booty could use the help!
I wish my legs looked better!! thanks for the recipe, xxxooo
I love that you do workout wednedays! It always encourages me (even if it is a fleeting moment) 🙂
cant wait for the abs post – i will be using that for sure! and totally agree about lunges! they rock.
I'm not a big fan of lunges – I prefer squats. 🙂
great post — legs are the spot that murders me most!
i thought of you when i heard that jimmy choo is starting a line at h&m! =)
Love that picture, that was a fun night!! Hey after I have this baby – you need to make me a booklet of all your "Workout Wednesday" posts =), K?
I have started doing those in my office. I figure that's a couple hours a day I am alone, and sometimes with very little to do, so why not!
Thanks for the tips and the mango salsa recipe. I bet that would be delicious with Tilapia!
I love the group SATC movie shot 🙂
That salsa sounds so yummy!
Thanks for the tips. I always forget to do calf raises and I need to. That salsa sounds delicious.
I once did 12 straight minutes of calf raises while in the stand up tanning booth. KILLER! OMG!
Can't wait for the abs segment!

Is it bad that I hate lunges?!? I know how good they are and I love the way they make my legs (& butt!) look, but I despise them!! Oh the price we pay….
I def. need some ideas for ab workouts!!! eek! I have been working my butt off…and unfortunately have limited space so I usually run and or use the bike and I can't get rid of the belly pudge for anything!! (I am always eating fat free, sugar free, low fat etc…i ONLY drink water and tea…its crazy!) I just don't know how to lose the pudge..ideas? thnx!
