Upstairs Farmer’s Carry

Grab a pair of heavy dumbbells and stand in front of the staircase in your home. Walk up 10 to 12 steps, turn around, and go back down to where you started. This is just one set. Complete three sets in total, taking a 60-second break in between. This grueling workout focuses on strengthening your lower back, core, and forearms.

Barbell Reverse Lunge

Load up a barbell with weights according to what you can manage. Stand while holding the barbell beneath your hips and engage your core, glutes, and mid-back. Step back with your right foot, lowering your body into a lunge, before rising to the starting position and stepping forward. Repeat on the left. Do three sets consisting of between eight to 10 reps each.

Hanging Leg Lift

Here’s a workout that specializes in boosting your lower-body strength. Hang onto a pullup bar with an overhand grip. Engage your core and glutes. Tuck your knees up into your chest and lower gradually. Complete three sets of eight to 10 reps each.
