If you’re aiming for toned legs, incorporating effective exercises into your routine can make a significant difference. Here are some simple yet powerful exercises to help you achieve those toned legs

Squats

Start with your feet shoulder-width apart, lower your body as if you’re sitting back into a chair, keeping your back straight and chest up. Aim to lower until your thighs are parallel to the ground, then push through your heels to stand back up. Repeat for several reps.

Lunges

Step forward with one leg and lower your body until both knees are bent at about a 90-degree angle. Your front knee should not go beyond your toes. Push back to the starting position and switch legs. This exercise targets your quads, hamstrings, and glutes.

Calf Raises

Stand with your feet hip-width apart and rise onto the balls of your feet, lifting your heels off the ground. Hold briefly, then lower back down. You can do this exercise on flat ground or on a step to increase the range of motion.

Leg Raises

Lie on your back with your hands under your hips for support. Lift both legs off the ground until they are perpendicular to the floor, then slowly lower them back down without touching the ground. This targets your lower abdominal muscles and helps tone your thighs.

Bicycle Crunches

Lie on your back with your hands behind your head, lift your legs and bend your knees at a 90-degree angle. Bring one knee towards your chest while straightening the other leg, simultaneously twisting your torso to bring the opposite elbow towards the bent knee. Alternate sides in a pedaling motion.
